AJ was incredulous when I told him that I was making pork chops with blueberry sauce. Sure he was excited about pork chops. The man loves a juicy cut of meat. But the blueberry sauce gave him pause. I told him to trust me on this one, as the spices in the rub and the touch of maple syrup in the sauce will add just a tinge of sweetness that will work well with the pork. Making the pork chops in Anolon’s 14-inch French skillet was great because I could fit all the thick cut pork chops into the pan, and once I moved them to a plate to rest, I could easily deglaze with the blueberries and maple syrup. The blueberries have an earthier flavor than a lot of other berries and works well with the rosemary and coriander. I told him to expect more of a savory sweetness, perfect to go with the pork. And with one taste, he agreed with me. Get the recipe for these pork chops over at the Anolon site!
I’m teaming up with Anolon for the next three months to create recipes for their site for the fall and winter! Follow their hashtag #HolidayHosting for more recipes and fun! A special thanks to Anolon for sponsoring this post. I was compensated for developing the recipe on their site as well as this post and all Anolon products were provided by them.
