 These easy Skillet Pork Chops with Honey is the perfect dinner idea for any day of the week. Another plus, is that these savory chops are ready in about 30 minutes.

Hello, friends! How is your week going? Have you noticed your weeks getting busier like me? I have had to be very careful of trying not to overbook our activities as we enter the holiday season. Time is so precious this time of year and I really try to protect it.

Today’s recipe is an easy 30 minute dinner that’s perfect for when you are having a busy week and looking for a tasty dinner to put together quickly. I love simple recipes like this one because I can use ingredients I already have on hand, make dinner in a single skillet, and the amount of clean-up is minimal. This recipe for Skillet Orange Pork Chops is also delicious.

One of the secret ingredients in this recipe is Best Foods® Real Ketchup, which is sweetened with honey. I love this ketchup because it has no added sugar or high fructose corn syrup and each bottle has 15% less sugar content than the market leader. There are no artificial ingredients or flavorings, it is Non-GMO and it only contains real, simple ingredients (just five ingredients to be exact) such as tomatoes, honey, white wine vinegar, salt and spices.

 

Best Foods always makes quality products and I was excited to see that this ketchup was on the shelves. Did you know that each bottle is made with nine whole tomatoes and sweetened with honey?

 

I picked up the Best Foods Real Ketchup and all of my ingredients at my local Superior Grocers. Their prices are low and I don’t mind bagging my own groceries to save some money. They have a nice selection of meats and produce and I was able to pick up all my dinner ingredients in a few minutes. For this weeknight dinner, all my ingredients fit in just one Superior Grocers bag! Now that is easy!

 

Superior Grocers has a special savings on the Best Foods Real Ketchup from 12/5/18-12/11/18. Make sure to take advantage of the savings! These tasty Skillet Pork Chops are wonderful to serve on those evenings when you want to get dinner on the table in under 30 minutes.

Most of the ingredients are easy to keep on hand and everything comes together in a single pan (which is great for clean up too)! Below is what you will need to make Skillet Orange Pork Chops.

I make pork chops all year round, but this time of year, I find myself making them more often. Savory dishes are just so comforting this time of year and they are an easy dinner idea when schedules are busy. 

 

It is a beautifully flavorful meal and the sweet and savory combination makes this a delicious weeknight dinner.

Tips to Cook Skillet Pork Chops:

I love making pork chops on the stove in a skillet as they get a nice seared crust that you don’t get when you bake them. Pan frying pork chops is also a nice way to get dinner on the table in about 30 minutes. The most important thing to keep in mind is that you want the internal temperature of the chops to reach 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) before serving.

Skillet Orange Pork Chops

1 tablespoon olive oil

4-5 pork chops

¼ cup Best Foods Real Ketchup

½ onion, sliced

1 orange, washed and sliced in ¼” slices

1 small tomato, diced

½ teaspoon parsley

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon pepper

Heat oil in skillet over medium heat.

Salt and pepper pork chops.

Brown pork chops in pan for about 3-4 minutes.

Flip pork chops and add onion slices, orange slices, ketchup and tomatoes.

Reduce heat to medium-low and cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes, and until internal temperature of pork chops reaches 145 degrees F.

Stir pork chops and sauce before serving.

Sprinkle with parsley.

Allow chops to rest a couple of minutes to retain their juices.

Pre-slice the onions the morning or evening before.
