Balsamic Pork Chops

I love, love, love balsamic vinegar. These pork chops are absolutely delicious. Lately I have purchased bone-in pork chops and they are even better! They seem to retain more moisture than boneless. And, I just season the chops with whatever I have on hand before frying them (garlic, onion, sea salt)

Ingredients

4 pork chops, pounded to 3/4 inch thickness
1 t. salt
fresh pepper
1 t. pork chop seasoning
2. T. olive oil
2/3 c. balsamic vinegar
2 t. sugar

Directions
1. Pound pork chops, if necessary, and season them.
2. Heat pan for 1 minute over medium-high heat. Add olive oil, heat one more minute, then add chops. Cook until well browned on both sides and cooked through, about 5 minutes total.
3. Remove chops to a plate and lower the heat to medium. Add vinegar and sugar.
4. Cook vinegar mixture until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
5. Place chops (and any juices on the plate) into the pan and cook about 4 more minutes, turning the chops to fully glaze. Serve the chops with the sauce.

Optional: add shallots with chops and cook them in the vinegar/sugar the entire time.

To make this a "freezer meal", I place the chops in a bag already pounded and seasoned. The day of cooking them, I let them thaw in the fridge, then pick up the recipe with cooking them in the pan.
