Basalmic Pork Chops

Okay, I know I just posted a pork chop recipe...but, they were buy one get one free at the grocery store and it was one less thing to buy at the grocery :)

This was SO good and I already am planning on making it again.
It was a crowd pleaser and by crowd I mean my husband and me.
We did let the dog lick the plate though.
And you know what they say, two is a party and three is a crowd. 

Anywho, here is what you'll need:-
-1 (6.2-ounce) package fast-cooking long-grain and wild rice mix 
-3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 
-1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary 
-1/2 teaspoon salt 
-1/2 teaspoon pepper 
-6 boneless pork chops (I got the real thin cut) 
-2 tablespoons butter or margarine 
-2 tablespoons olive oil 
-2 garlic cloves, pressed 
-1 (14 1/2-ounce) can chicken broth 
-1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
Preparation:
 Cook rice according to package directions; keep warm.
Combine flour, 1 teaspoon rosemary, salt, and pepper. Dredge pork chops in flour mixture.  I do this in a gallon Ziploc bag.
Melt butter with oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add garlic, and sauté 1 minute. Add pork chops, and cook 4 minutes on each side or until golden. Remove pork chops.
Add broth and vinegar, stirring to loosen particles from bottom of skillet. Cook 6 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. Add pork chops, and cook 5 minutes or until done. Serve over rice.
Easy and delicious.  Win win.
 If you're anything like me & my husband you'll eat two chops.  But look how small they are! It's like one big chop.  Tyvm.  (That stands for thank you very much...as in I know we are fatties, but it is justified. )
We served it along side some parmesan green beans.  Forgot those in the pic.
Make it and you'll love it!
