A-Hooahs-Housewife: Balsamic Glazed Chops (skinny recipe)

Mr.Hooah and I do not eat pork often, but when we do it is usually boneless pork chops. And since we have been trying to cut back and eat healthier (I feel like I say that all the time lol) I have been prowling for new recipes! I found one....THIS ONE. I have to say, when it comes to cooking with balsamic vinegar, I am intimidated. I feel like it is super fancy and it is something I do not use in my cooking, ever really. I used it to make roasted brussels once upon a time and I wasn't too much of a fan, HOWEVER, I decided to try it once more for this Balsamic Glazed Pork Chop recipe from the Passionate Penny Pincher! I wasn't so sure about this while I started making the glaze... the vinegar smell wafting through my house was pretty strong and I wasn't very crazy about it when tasting it by itsself...BUT, after I got those chops all glazed up in it, man was it delicious! I must admit that I felt like I was a fancy-pants-chef...notice the sprinkle of parsley I added?!... yeah, I was in FoodNetwork mode for sure! Haha! I was pretty happy that this was a "skinny" version of this recipe and it also WeightWatcher friendly too, so it is a can't beat recipe!

Hope you enjoy this as much as Mr.Hooah and I did.

Balsamic Glazed Chops

4 boneless thinly sliced pork chops, pounded to 3/4" thick
garlic salt
pepper
onion flakes or onion powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
2/3 cup balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoon sugar

Pound pork chops to 3/4" thick.

Season chops with garlic salt, pepper, and onion flakes or onion powder.

Heat pan to medium heat for one minute, then add olive oil and heat another minute.

Add pork chops and cook over medium high heat until browned on both sides (about 5 minutes.)

Place pork chops on plate, lower heat a bit, then add vinegar and sugar and cook until sauce thickens (about two minutes, sauce won't get very thick but will become a little more syrup like.)
