Ingredients

• 1 large shallot , minced (about 1/4 cup)
• 2 medium garlic cloves , minced or pressed through garlic press (about 2 teaspoons)
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth

Preparation

Step 1

Pour off all but 1 teaspoon oil from pan used to cook chops and return pan to medium heat. Add shallot and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until softened, about 1 minute. Add wine and broth, scraping pan bottom to loosen browned bits. Simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup, 6 to 7 minutes. Off heat, stir in thyme and vinegar, then whisk in butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Season with salt and pepper and serve with chops.
