Pork Chop

Ingredients

serves 2 people

• 1/2 cup beef broth
• 6 tablespoons bourbon
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon white wine vinegar
• 2 thick-cut pork chops
• ground allspice
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped

Procedures

1. Combine the broth, sugar, vinegar, and half of the bourbon in a small pan. Turn the heat to medium and cook until the sugar melts. Turn off the heat and set side.
2. Dry the chops off with some paper towels, and then season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of allspice on each side.
3. Add the butter to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. When melted, toss in the chops. Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes a side, until cooked through. Set the chops aside on a plate.
4. Pour in the broth and bourbon mixture. Cook over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add the rest of the bourbon, turn the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring often, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Turn off the heat, and add the mint.
5. Serve the sauce over the chops.
