Sweet and Spicy and just a bit Fruity!

It's almost summer which means that blueberries are going on sale. I picked some up and decided to try them with some pork chops. I knew they'd be good with balsamic vinegar but also wanted to kick them up with Chipotle. SO incredibly flavorful and good!




Ingredients:


2 Tbsp olive oil
2 bone-in, 1/2-inch-thick pork chops
Salt and pepper
1/2 c onion, diced
1 c blueberries
1/2 c red wine
1 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp Chipotle pepper
Couscous, for serving


Prep:


1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium high heat. Season pork with salt and pepper. Add to pan and brown 5 minutes on each side. Remove and set aside.


2. Add onion and brown 5 minutes. Add blueberries, wine, sugar, lemon juice, balsamic, thyme and chipotle. Bring to a boil.


3. Turn heat down to medium and add pork back. Simmer 5 minutes, until pork is cooked through. Serve with couscous.
