Reduce heat to medium and add the honey-maple-pecan mixture to the butter drippings in the skillet. Heat until hot, stirring continuously. Once heated through, spoon mixture over pork chops and serve. Enjoy!
I don’t cook a lot of pork, but this recipe has me wanting to make it more often. The mixture of the honey, maple and pecans is perfection. The sweetness is not overwhelming – the soy sauce and chicken broth are key. If you prefer a sweeter sauce, stick with the original recipe from allrecipes.com, Awesome Honey Pecan Pork Chops.
