Trade in your typical pork chops-and-applesauce for this fresh entree. This sauce is also good with chicken.
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons pepper
- 2 tablespoons ground sage
- 4 boneless, 1-inch thick pork chops
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Bosc USA Pears, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- ¾ cup white wine
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 3 teaspoons fresh grated ginger
In shallow dish, combine flour, salt, pepper, and sage. Coat pork chops in flour mixture. In large sauté pan, heat olive oil until very hot.
Add pork chops and brown well on each side. Remove pork and set aside. Add pears to pan and sauté for two minutes. Add wine, sugar, mustard, and ginger; bring to a boil. Continue to boil until sauce starts to thicken.
Add pork slices on top of sauce, cover and cook until pork is thoroughly cooked. Serve by placing pork chop on each plate and spooning pear sauce over the top.

This was recipe was really tasty. Surprisingly so as I’m not one to cook with pears very often. Amazing what a good sale will motivate a guy to try.
I usually start with recipies as a base and tailor them to my taste. This one I pretty much prepared as is and it was very pleasing. The most time consuming part was cutting up the pears and waiting for my wife to get back from the Grocery with Ground Sage. I had 3/4″ thick chops and let the conglomeration cook a little longer than would have been optimal, but the chops were juicy and tender. Simmered them in the sauce for about 20 minutes.
This recipe was a great find and made my evening!
