Sear the pork chops in a skillet, then finish them in the oven with pear quarters brushed with a mixture of honey, mustard, and thyme. The pears soften and caramelize slightly, while the pan drippings create a sweet and savory sauce.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Sear the pork chops

    8 min

    Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F). Pat the pork chops dry, season with salt and pepper, and sear in the oil until golden brown on both sides. Transfer to a baking dish.

  2. Prepare the pears

    5 min

    Quarter and core the pears, then arrange them around the pork chops. Mix the honey with the mustard and thyme, and brush the mixture over the pork chops and pears.

  3. Finish in the oven

    20 min

    Add the water to the pan drippings, pour into the baking dish, and bake for 18–20 minutes, until the pork chops are cooked through and the pears are tender.

  4. Serve

    Serve the pork chops with the pears and pan juices. Mashed potatoes make a good accompaniment.

Tip: Brush on the honey mixture only after searing the meat; the honey would burn in the skillet and turn bitter.
