Balsamic-Glazed Pork Chops

"This is from Rachael Ray’s 365: No Repeats. Yum! Be sure to reduce the sauce long enough or it won’t be thick enough. I used dry herbs and it worked just fine. The glaze would also be good on a spinach salad or baked potato. It sounds like a complicated recipe, but I promise, it’s easy! Serve with rice pilaf"

  1. This was quick and easy. We really liked the flavor of the glaze. I was in a hurry to put dinner on the table, so did not simmer the pork chops in the liquid as I planned. I'll try that next time since we like our pork "fork-tender." Thanks for a new pork chop recipe!
     
  2. Great flavors! Also good over chicken.
     
  3. Quite delicious! The glaze was very tasty. :)
     
  4. Very easy and great for a week night. I had no trouble with the sauce. This goes into my 'keepers' file :)
     
  5. This was pretty good, I did use some cornstarch to thicken up the sauce a bit, but other than that it was alright.

<p>My rating system: (I don't like giving bad reviews, so if I don't like it, I'll just not review it.) <br /><br />5 Stars OMG, this is one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten! I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
