Pork Chops

Pepper Peach Mustard Glaze

Garlic Green Beans

Method

Pork Chops

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork Chops

    Season the pork chops with salt and black pepper on both sides. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork Chops

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork chops and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest.

Pepper Peach Mustard Glaze

  1. 3

    Make the Glaze

    In a small saucepan, combine the diced peach, chopped peppadew peppers, Dijon mustard, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Cook over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until the peaches soften and the mixture thickens slightly. Stir occasionally.

Garlic Green Beans

  1. 4

    Sauté the Green Beans

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fresh green beans and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.

  2. 5

    Cook with Garlic

    In the same skillet used for the pork chops, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the green beans and toss to coat. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Creamy Polenta

  1. 6

    Prepare the Polenta

    In a large saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Slowly whisk in the polenta, reducing the heat to low. Stir continuously for about 5 minutes until it thickens.

  2. 7

    Finish the Polenta

    Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and salt. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until creamy and smooth.
