Ingredients

For the pork chop glaze:

  • 6 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1/2 tablespoon harissa powder
  • 1 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt

For the pork chops:

  • 4 bone-in pork chops
  • 1/2 - 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon harissa powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan, combine the glaze ingredients and whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, until thickened. Once the glaze has thickened, remove from heat and set aside.
  • Season pork chops with salt, pepper and harissa.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet to medium-high. Add the pork chops and sear for 4 - 5 minutes per side, or until pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145˚F.
  • Remove from heat and add prepared glaze before serving.

Notes

This recipe makes enough glaze for up to 8 pork chops. Feel free to double the amount of chops you're cooking if you need more servings.
