Cherry Balsamic Glazed Pork Chops, a wonderful balance of flavors. From tangy and tart cherries and balsamic vinegar to sweet onions, delicious!
Cherry Balsamic Glazed Pork Chops, you’re gonna love these! Recently, I bought some cherries after my 5 yr old insisted we get some. Brought them home & both little girls flat-out decided they didn’t like them. I have to agree, fresh cherries aren’t normally the first fruit I choose. So, there they sat in the fridge just looking at me.
A few days ago I asked on our Facebook page what I should do with them. There were some great responses, the ones that had cherries combined with balsamic vinegar really intrigued me. I knew I could come up with something that would taste delicious with that combo. And that’s how Cherry Balsamic Glazed Pork Chops came to be … TADA!!! Served alongside some oh so easy Cheesy Beer Bread…perfect dinner!

Those look great and I love the use of pork chops. I think they are underused. Even by me. Thanks for sharing at What’d You Do This Weekend.

I need to remind myself to cook pork chops more often too, so versatile!
