PORK CHOPS IN BALSAMIC VINEGAR AND SHALLOT SAUCE



Pork Chops in Balsamic Vinegar and Shallot Sauce image

This is a quick yet tasty dish. The acidity of the balsamic vinegar is balanced by the sweetness of the shallots. I suppose the chops could be broiled rather than pan-fried, but you would lose the lovely drippings for the sauce.

This sauce is excellent poured over any kind of roasted meats, or even pasta. It's rather rich, but delicious. To save time, you may skip roasting the shallots and simply saute them, but the roasting enhances the flavor.
