Step 1
Combin the pears, brown sugar, lemon juice, pear juice, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan. Bring everything to a boil, then let it cook for about 30 minutes, stirring now and then until the sauce thickens. Once it’s thickened, pour the mixture into a blender and blend until smooth. Pour it back into the saucepan, cover, and let it simmer gently for another 15 minutes on low heat. After that, take it off the heat and let it cool a bit.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat some oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the pork chops for about 8 minutes, flipping them once halfway through, until they’re cooked all the way through. When the chops are ready, spoon the pear sauce over the top and enjoy!
What To Serve With This Dish
Serve alongside roasted vegetables or a simple green salad to add freshness. Mashed potatoes or creamy polenta also complement the flavors well, soaking up the delicious pear sauce.
Storage Suggestions
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave to preserve moisture and flavor. The pear sauce can be stored separately and reheated before serving.
