Pork Chops with Riesling Peach Sauce

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Pork Chops with Riesling Peach Sauce.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

2. Step 2

   In a large skillet, warm up some olive oil over medium-high heat, creating a lovely sizzle.

3. Step 3

   While the oil heats, season your pork chops generously with salt and black pepper, giving them a flavorful kick.

4. Step 4

   Once the skillet is hot, carefully add the pork chops and let them sear until they develop a beautiful golden-brown crust, which should take about 3 minutes on each side.

5. Step 5

   After achieving that perfect sear, transfer the pork chops to your prepared baking sheet and pop them into the oven.

6. Step 6

   Bake until they are no longer pink in the center, which will take around 20 minutes.

7. Step 7

   To ensure they’re cooked just right, use an instant-read thermometer to check that they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

8. Step 8

   While the pork chops are baking, return to the skillet and pour in some Riesling wine, letting it simmer gently.

9. Step 9

   As it bubbles, take a moment to scrape up those delicious browned bits from the bottom of the pan—this is where the flavor magic happens! Allow the wine to reduce by half, then introduce the peach wedges, a sprinkle of ground cinnamon, a dash of ground nutmeg, and a spoonful of brown sugar.

10. Step 10

    Lower the heat to medium and let everything cook together until the peaches are tender but still hold their shape, which should take about 15 minutes.

11. Step 11

    Once your pork chops are perfectly baked, serve them up with a generous spoonful of that luscious peach sauce on top.

    Enjoy the delightful combination of savory and sweet flavors that will surely impress your family and friends!.
