Apricot Brandy Glazed Pork Chops have just the right amount of sweetness and warmth with a touch of fresh woodsy rosemary.

Apricot Brandy Glazed Pork Chops

I think pork is one of the most versatile meats you can use. Pork cooks quickly so it’s perfect for any   weeknight dinner. Apricot Brandy Glazed Pork Chops is also versatile because you can use apricots, like I did, or you can use peaches. I chose apricots because I couldn’t resist the little orange pitted fruits plied high in my local market. After all, it is stone fruit season.

One thing you might find interesting about apricots is that they are much easier to pit than a peach…they seem to just fall out once they are sliced in half. I grilled a couple to serve with the pork to add a smoky tart taste.

Apricot Brandy Glazed Pork Chops

For this recipe I used bone-in pork chops, which take a few more minutes to cook, but the flavor and tenderness is worth the extra 3-5 minutes. The best way to cook a pork chop is to sear both sides in a hot pan and then to place them in the oven or into a simmering sauce, which is what I did with this recipe. I also chose to use Apricot Brandy as the base to my sauce to bring a warmth to the tangy fresh apricots. And here’s something you might not know – apricot brand is not a brandy it’s a liqueur made from fermented apricots.

Bahamian Goombay Smash cocktail goes great with these chops.
