Reviews
Fresh apricots are just coming in season so I bought them a few days ahead to ripen. We love apples with pork but the apricots were a delight as well. This is easy and would be a great company dish when you don’t want to fuss all day in the kitchen!
Super easy. The apricots and honey balance out the pork chops well.
We really loved this! Don’t let the paper plate fool you — this is a classy dish! I used fresh apricots but first put the sauce ingredients on a saucepan on low for about 15 min to get the fruit with the honey and garlic to blend together. I then sautéed the chops 4 min on one side and 3 on the other, added the warmed sauce to the pan and removed from heat and covered for 10 min. Chops were perfect!
My family loved it!
Easy to make very tasty this is a keeper
We enjoyed the recipe, the chops we used were poor quality.. We will make again with different chops
Love it. Sweet with out being too sweet and fast and easy to make!
I didn’t have fresh apricots either so I used canned, drained but saved the juice and added a little of it to the end to make more juices for the rice to soak up. I also added a little cayenne to one side of each chop to give it some kick…sweet and spicy over rice and served with asparagus. This a keeper for sure. It’s easy, pretty quick to fix and delicious. My guys loved it.
I used thick pork chops and it took a bit longer. The recipe did not specify what size. I loved it when I cut them thin and soaked them in the juice. I would add more honey and didn’t have fresh apricots so I used canned. Pat dry them & used the whole can & glad I did.
Wonderful and so easy. I spent 6 hours painting our deck with my wife. While she showered, I prepared dinner! She was amazed at a dinner that took 35 minutes to prepare but was so delicious!
I don’t usually eat pork so must admit I had trouble getting the cooking times correct. First time it was too pink inside so gave it 2 more minutes which then overcooked it. Anyway the savory flavors just weren’t there. I used fresh very ripe apricots and followed recipe exactly. Won’t make it again
We loved this recipe, I did make one change to it, I omitted the parsley as a garnish. It was so easy to make, and tasted really wonderful.
This was awful. I used boneless center cut pork chops and they came out tough. A total waste.
This is easy to prepare and tasty. I followed the recipe exactly. It says to add the apricots, garlic and honey and mix with the pork chops. I mixed them together first and then poured the mixture over the chops but allowed some of it to drip onto the bottom of the pan. The times given worked perfectly for me. The chops were tender. I paired them with asparagus roasted in olive oil and balsamic vinegar and it was a pleasing combination. I’ll make this again.
I didn’t have apricots so I used apricot marmalade. Delicious!!
Yes, after reading reviews I included many of the suggestions. No fresh apricots available, so substituted both preserves and canned apricots. I only had mango infused honey which I think only added to the yumminess. A big deviation was the addition of tamari, low sodium version and a small slurry of cornstarch to thicken up the sauce. We all loved it. Quick and easy.
Used plums instead of apricots and it was amazing.
This was good, but the chops were a little dry we thought… next time I’ll make this in the slow cooker. I used about 4 tbsp. of apricot preserves instead of the apricots.
I made this and it was successful. The store didn’t have fresh or even canned apricots, so I substituted two cans of fried apples in syrup. Because the syrup already had sugar, I left out the honey. Otherwise, I followed the recipe. I used 3/4″ boneless pork chops. My family complimented it. One person commented on the tenderness of the meat, and another said they initially thought it might be too sweet, but when they tasted it, it wasn’t. I would make this again.
This has a very interesting blend of flavors that are terrific . It is easy to make and my family loved it. We are hoping the leftovers are just as good as it was this evening .
Used canned apricots instead of fresh, but the chops were awesome! Definitely making again.
