serves 4

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 pork chops
1/2 cup chopped organic shallots (from Nature’s Pantry)
4 cloves minced garlic (from Nature’s Pantry)
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup chopped dried plums (from Nature’s Pantry)
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Directions

In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Place the pork chops in the oil, and cook until brown on each side. Then set them aside on a different plate. In the same skillet, add shallots and garlic, and stir until softened, 3-5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, dried plums, balsamic vinegar, and thyme. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat, and cook sauce until it has thickened, about 5 minutes. Generously spoon over the pork chops. Allow the sauce to absorb into the meat for 5-10 minutes before serving.
