Pork Chops with Pears
Pear slices make a satisfying alternative to apples in this down-home dish sent in by Kathy Stooksbury of Aiken, South Carolina. She dresses up the easy entree even further by adding a hint of brown sugar for sweetness.
6 Servings
Prep: 15 min. Bake: 40 min.
Ingredients
1 can (15 ounces) pear halves
6 bone-in pork chops (3/4 inch thick)
3 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
Directions
Drain pears, reserving the juice; cut pears into slices and set
aside. In a large skillet, brown the pork chops in butter. Transfer
to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, mustard and reserved pear
juice. Pour over chops; top with pear slices.
Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until a meat
thermometer reads 160°. Yield: 6 servings.
