Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 3/4 cup fat-free less-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup dried blueberries
  • 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt -- divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper -- divided
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 3 plums -- pitted peeled, and coarsely chopped (about 1 3/4 cups)
  • Cooking spray
  • 24 ounces bone-in center-cut pork chops about 1 inch thick
  • Fresh parsley sprigs -- optional

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook 3 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Stir in broth, blueberries, vinegar, molasses, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, coriander, and plums; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until plums are tender and mixture is thick.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper over pork chops. Add pork chops to skillet; cook 2 minutes on each side or until browned. Reduce heat to medium; cook 4 minutes or until done. Remove pork chops from skillet; cover and keep warm. Add plum mixture to skillet; bring to a simmer. Cook 2 minutes, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Spoon plum mixture over pork. Garnish with parsley, if desired.
