    Peach Pork Chops

    My obsession with peaches continues this summer, with a rich balsamic pork chop recipe covered in peaches and melted gorgonzola.  This bone in pork chop recipe is easy enough for a weeknight, but fancy enough for company.

    Balsamic Pork Chops with Peaches and Gorgonzola and Green Beans

    Bone in pork chops used to really intimidate me.  I was always scared I'd end up with undercooked meat near the bone, but overcooked everywhere else.  And truth be told ... sometimes I did!

    But I finally realized that the key to being able to follow a bone-in pork chop recipe is to pay attention to the thickness of your chops.

    When shopping for bone-in pork for this recipe, you have GOT to make sure you get those 1" chops.  Otherwise you might end up with overcooked or undercooked meat!

    Due to its low fat content, pork really is SO susceptible to turning into a piece of shoe leather as soon as it's just a little overcooked.

    But don't worry! Just get 1" chops and these will turn out perfectly for you! And if you can't find just the right size,  as happened to us one night when I was recipe testing some variations on this dish, the delicious sauce will still save you and make for a delicious, if not chewy, meal.

    • 3 Bone-in Pork Chops 1" thick
    • ½ Tablespoon Black Pepper ground
    • ½ teaspoon Salt
    • ½ cup Balsamic Vinegar
    • 2 Tablespoons Honey

    • ⅓ cup Gorgonzola crumbled

    Instructions

    • In a large oven-proof skillet over medium high heat, add the olive oil and let it warm up.

    • Remove the pork chops from the pan and set them aside on a clean plate, leaving the peach vinegar mixture in the pan.

      Loved this recipe, it was a great, quick dinner that really delivered in taste. I did add some crushed pecans because I was a bit short on the cheese.
