This Saucy Pork Chop Recipe is one of my favorites pork chop recipes. The addition of preserves makes a nice tangy sauce over the tender pork chops. 

I usually make pork chops at least twice a month. If I am not making these, I love to make my stovetop Dijon pork chops or my brown sugar skillet pork chops.

I call this my Saucy Pork Chop Recipe because, well, that is what it is. We are huge fans of pork chops and most of my stove-top pork chop recipes have a bit of spice and a bit of sauce. I

prefer this style over those with a crispy coating. This pork chop recipe has a nice caramelized coating with the help of a little apricot jam.

Most of my pork chops recipes are stove-top recipes. We are a busy family and making pork chops on the stove makes for an easy dinner and easy cleanup.

I love serving these with a little sauce on top, but you can spoon on less if desired. I love making these on the stovetop in about 30 minutes. They go well with potatoes or rice and a side salad.
