Notes
- Pat pork chops dry: Removing excess moisture helps the chops sear properly and develop better flavor.
- Season before searing: A simple sprinkle of salt and pepper enhances the pork and builds a flavorful base.
- Use medium heat: Cooking over moderate heat prevents the glaze from burning while allowing the pork to cook evenly.
- Spoon glaze over chops: Basting during cooking coats the pork and helps the sauce thicken into a glossy finish.
- Rest briefly before serving: Letting the chops sit for a few minutes keeps them juicy and allows the glaze to settle.
