Everyone cleaned their plates when my mother made these succulent, tangy-sweet pork chops when I was growing up. Now I get the same results when I serve them to my family alongside applesauce and au gratin potatoes. —Cheryl Miller, Fort Collins, Colorado

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 bone-in pork loin chops (7 ounces each)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup cider vinegar
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 2/3 cup packed brown sugar

Directions

  1. In a large shallow dish, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Add pork chops and turn to coat. In a large ovenproof skillet, cook chops in butter over medium heat until a thermometer reads 145°, 4-5 minutes on each side. Remove and keep warm.
  2. Meanwhile, in the same skillet, bring the vinegar to a boil. Reduce heat; add maple syrup. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually add to maple mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes.
  3. Place chops on a broiler pan; sprinkle with brown sugar. Broil 4 in. from the heat until sugar is melted, 1-2 minutes. Drizzle with maple glaze.
