Juicy, golden-seared pork meets sweet roasted peaches, balanced by the earthiness of rosemary and the tang of balsamic vinegar. It’s the kind of dish that feels special enough for date night, yet simple enough for a weeknight dinner.
2 bone-in pork chops
2 large peaches or nectarines
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp fresh rosemary
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
Optional: splash of white wine
Salt and pepper, to taste
1. Roast the Fruit
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Slice the peaches and spread them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with rosemary. Roast for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened but not burnt.
Remove from the oven, drizzle with balsamic vinegar, and set aside while the pork cooks.
2. Cook the Pork
Heat your DaTerra Cucina skillet over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil.
Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, then sear them on both sides until golden. Continue cooking until just done—juicy in the center but fully cooked through. Remove from pan and cover.
3. Make the Pan Sauce
Lower the heat and add 1 tbsp butter to the skillet. Deglaze with a splash of water or white wine, scraping the pan to capture every bit of flavor.
4. Bring It Together
Add the roasted balsamic peaches into the skillet, letting their juices mix into the sauce. Gently stir, then serve immediately poured over the pork chops.
Pork and fruit are a timeless Italian pairing—where savory richness meets natural sweetness. The balsamic glaze adds depth, while rosemary layers in an herbal fragrance that lingers beautifully.
Cooking it in a DaTerra Cucina skillet makes all the difference. The even heat gives the pork that perfect sear while the ceramic surface keeps delicate peaches from sticking, making this dish as effortless as it is delicious.
Experiment with nectarines, plums or other fruits when in season.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
Serve with roasted potatoes, creamy polenta, or a crisp salad.
Pair with a glass of white wine for the perfect Italian-inspired dinner.
This recipe isn’t just about cooking pork chops—it’s about creating a moment at the table that feels warm, balanced, and memorable.
