Maple-Thyme Pork Chops
Ingredients
  • 4 boneless pork loin chops, about 3/4 inch thick (about 1-1/4 pounds total)
  • 1/4 teaspoon  salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon  ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon  canola oil
  • 2 tablespoons  finely chopped shallot
  • 2 tablespoons  chopped pecans, toasted
  • 2 tablespoons  maple-flavored syrup
  • 1 tablespoon  melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon  snipped fresh thyme
Directions

1. Sprinkle chops with salt and ground black pepper. In a very large skillet heat oil over medium-high heat. Add shallot; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add chops; cook for 9 to 13 minutes or until pork juices run clear (160 degrees F), turning once halfway through cooking time.

2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine pecans, syrup, butter, and thyme. Place cooked pork chops onto 4 dinner plates. Top with syrup mixture.

From the Test KitchenMoney-Saving Tip:
  • Switch out the 2 tablespoons shallot for 1/4 cup chopped onion.
