Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the pork chops until they’re no longer pink inside, about 5 to 7 minutes per side. You can check by cutting into one or using a meat thermometer—it should read 145°F in the center. While the chops are cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Stir in the brown sugar until it’s completely smooth. Pour in the evaporated milk and bring the mixture to a boil, then take it off the heat right away. Next, add the corn syrup and give everything a good stir. Finally, fold in the pecans. Once the pork chops are ready, spoon this sweet praline sauce over the top and enjoy!
Why you’ll love it
This dish combines savory pork with a sweet, crunchy praline topping that adds amazing texture and flavor. It’s a perfect balance of salty and sweet, making each bite satisfying and unique. Plus, it’s easy to prepare for both weeknight dinners and special occasions.
How to serve
Serve with roasted vegetables or a fresh green salad to balance the richness of the dish. Mashed potatoes or creamy polenta also pair well, soaking up the sweet praline sauce.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or on the stovetop to maintain the crispiness of the praline topping. Avoid microwaving if possible, as it can make the topping soggy.
