Ingredients

  • 2 8oz pork chops, 1 inch thick
  • 2 garlic cloves smashed
  • Olive Oil
  • Butter
  • 1/2 cup sweet cherry peppers sliced
  • 1/2 cup hot cherry peppers sliced
  • 1/2 onion sliced (optional)
  • 1/4 cup pepper brine
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth

Instructions

  • Add olive oil and butter to a medium skillet. Once hot, add the smashed garlic and the pork. Sear the pork for 4 minutes per side over medium-high heat. Remove the garlic once it starts to burn.
  • Once you finish searing the pork, remove the pork and set aside. Remove excess oil from the pan and drizzle with new oil. Add the onions and saute for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add the peppers and saute for a minute. Deglaze the pan with broth and brine.
  • Bring to a simmer and add the pork chops back to the sauce. Continue to simmer for another 10 minutes, then remove the pork once done.
  • Take the sauce off the heat and finish with a few tablespoons of cold butter to emulsify the sauce, then pour over the pork.
