Pork chops with plum sauce make a quick fall lunch: sear the chops in a skillet, then simmer plums, onion, thyme, and a little vinegar in the pan drippings to make the sauce. The acidity of the plums and vinegar balances the rich meat.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Pork chops

    12 min

    Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a skillet and sear the chops for 5–6 minutes per side, until the juices near the bone run clear. Remove the chops and keep warm.

  2. Sauce

    12 min

    Finely chop the onion and sauté it in the pan drippings. Pit and quarter the plums, then add them along with the thyme, honey, vinegar, and water. Simmer, stirring, for 8–10 minutes, until the plums break down and the sauce thickens. Season with salt.

  3. Serve

    Return the pork chops to the sauce, heat briefly until warmed through, and serve with potatoes.

Tip: Taste the sauce at the end and add a little honey or a splash of vinegar depending on how sweet the plums are.
