For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of balsamic vinegar to the pan during the last few minutes of cooking. If fresh apricots are not available, you can substitute with canned apricot halves, drained well. Serve with a side of roasted asparagus, quinoa, or a simple green salad for a complete and balanced meal. Ensure not to overcook the pork chops in the first step, which can lead to dry meat.
