Lightly glaze pork chops in a balsamic vinegar-honey mixture and pair with red pepper grits for a hearty, downhome entrée that goes well with green beans. Ingredients:
3 cups water |
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided |
3/4 cup uncooked quick-cooking grits |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/2 teaspoon bottled minced garlic |
1 (7-ounce) bottle roasted red bell pepper, drained and diced |
cooking spray |
4 (4-ounce) boneless center-cut loin pork chops (about 3/4 inch thick) |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar |
2 tablespoons honey |
Directions:
1. Bring water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil. Add grits, butter, and garlic, stirring with a whisk. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in red pepper.
2. While grits cook, heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Sprinkle pork with 1/4 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Add pork to pan; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done. Remove from pan. Stir in vinegar and honey, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute or until thick, stirring constantly with a whisk. Return pork to pan; turn to coat. Serve pork and sauce over grits.
