📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and sear until lightly browned, about ⏱️ 4 minutes per side. Transfer chops to a plate. Drain all but 1 tablespoon fat from pan.
2
Add pears to skillet and sauté over medium-high heat until golden, about ⏱️ 6 minutes. Transfer pears to plate with pork chops.
3
Add beer and sage into pan. With a wooden spoon, scrape up caramelized bits from bottom. Add pork chops and pears back to pan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Partially cover skillet with lid, reduce heat to low, and braise until chops are cooked through, 5 to ⏱️ 7 minutes.
4
Remove chops and pears from pan. Skim away any fat from liquid, increase heat to medium, and cook until sauce is reduced by half, about ⏱️ 10 minutes. Serve pork chops topped with pears and sauce.
