Step 1
Start by combining the pears, brown sugar, lemon juice, pear juice, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then let it cook for about 30 minutes, stirring now and then, until it thickens up nicely. Once thickened, pour the sauce into a blender and blend until it’s completely smooth. Pour it back into the saucepan, cover, and let it simmer gently over low heat for another 15 minutes. Then take it off the heat and let it cool while you cook the pork chops.

Step 2
Heat some oil in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the pork chops for around 8 minutes, flipping them once halfway through, until they’re cooked through. When everything is ready, spoon the pear sauce over the chops and enjoy!

How to serve
Serve this dish alongside roasted vegetables or a simple green salad. Mashed potatoes or rice also work well to soak up the pear sauce. A glass of white wine or light cider can complement the flavors beautifully.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave to avoid drying out the pork. The pear sauce can be stored separately to maintain its fresh flavor.
