    A Story of Grilled Pork Chops with Blackberry Glaze

    As a stay at home parent of two young children, my days can be busy and hectic but I always make sure to find time to try out new recipes that are both delicious and easy to make. Recently I tried my hand at making Grilled Pork Chops with Blackberry Glaze which quickly became a family favorite! After marinating my pork chops in a combination of olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper for about an hour, I preheated my grill pan and placed them on there for about 5 minutes per side until they were cooked through. While the pork chops were cooking I combined blackberry jam, balsamic vinegar and butter in a small saucepan to create a sweet glaze that I later used to brush over both sides of my pork chops when they were done cooking. After plating them up with a side of roasted vegetables we all sat down together as a family to enjoy this delicious meal! We all loved it so much that we plan on making it again soon!
