Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute onion in oil for 4-5 minutes or until crisp-tender. Remove and keep warm. Sprinkle both sides of pork chops with salt and thyme; add to skillet. Cover and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Remove and keep warm. , In the same skillet, combine the peaches, sugar, vinegar and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until thickened. Return pork and onion to the pan; heat through.

Steps:

• To cut chops from a bone-in pork loin, follow along the rib bone with a sharp knife to make one clean cut. Season the pork chops thoroughly with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper. One at a time, cover each chop with a piece of plastic wrap and lightly pound with the back of a heavy knife or a spoon to work the seasoning into the chops.Cut the peaches into medium ½-inch chunks. Slice the garlic cloves into thin slivers. Pull the sage leaves from the stems and thinly slice.
• Heat a heavy bottomed cast-iron pan over high heat. Once the pan is hot, add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
• To the hot pan, add all of the chops standing up on their fat cap side, to render off some of the fat, and pan-sear for a few minutes. Remove two of the chops, and lay the other two down on their meatier sides, to pan sear and cook through. After a few minutes, carefully turn over and brown the other side for another few minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
• Repeat for the remaining chops. Remove from the pan and let rest with the other pork chops.Drain and discard some of the cooking oil. Add the peaches to the pan and sauté vigorously, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and sage, and immediately add the apple cider. Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the butter and swirl the mixture together, to emulsify the butter into the peaches. Remove from the heat.
• Stack the rested pork chops on a platter and finish by spooning the peaches and pan juices over top. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C/gas 7).
• Score the skin of the pork through the fat, the incisions should be about 1 centimeter apart. Turn over. Make a pocket for the stuffing by cutting an incision at an angle, about 3 inches (7.5 centimeters) deep in the center of the streaky part of the loin, working away from the eye meat. Starting slightly in from the side of the meat, slowly slice along the loin not quite to the end, this will ensure your stuffing won't fall out.
• Chop half the thyme with 1 clove of garlic and scrunch together with the butter, 1 tin of peaches, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Push the butter into the pocket and pat back into shape. Lay the pancetta, bacon or Parma ham over the pork, leaving the skin side uncovered, and tie up firmly with 3 to 4 pieces of string.
• Place skin-side up in a roasting tray with the remaining peaches, the garlic cloves, thyme, and half of the white wine. Roast for around 1 hour until the skin is crisp and golden.
• When ready, remove the pork and peaches to a plate and leave to rest for 15 minutes whilst you finish the sauce. To do this, remove most of the fat from the roasting tray, then place the tray over a high heat. Squash the cooked garlic and add 1 tablespoon of flour. Stir and add the rest of the wine with a glass of water or stock. Simmer and leave to reduce for a few minutes. Strain and add any extra juices from the rested pork. Check the seasoning and consistency and serve drizzled over the sliced pork.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400* F.
• On the stovetop, heat a small pot over medium heat. Add butter and shallot and cook for 2 minutes, until shallot begins to soften. Add peaches, whiskey, lemon juice, thyme, and brown sugar substitute and mix well.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for about 5-7 minutes, until it starts to thicken. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Place pork chops in a baking dish, salt and pepper to taste. Top with peach sauce.
• Cover casserole dish, and bake for 25-30 minutes, until chops are cooked through and peach sauce is bubbly.
• NOTE: Depending on how juicy your peaches are, you may want to thicken the sauce with some cornstarch after baking the chops.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F and place rack in center of oven.
• To make the grits: Heat a saucepan, with the broth and milk, to boiling over medium high heat; add the grits in a steady stream, while whisking to prevent lumps.
• When the mixture returns to a boil, reduce heat to low and cook, whisking occasionally, until it begins to thicken, about 10 minutes.
• Whisk in 1/2 cup warm water and continue to cook, until those big, slow bubbles pop on the surface, about 15 minutes more.
• Stir in the cheeses,butter, and hot sauce, season with salt and pepper and continue to cook, stirring often, until grits are creamy and tender, 5 minutes more; remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, season the pork chops on both sides with the ground fennel, salt and pepper (be generous); press seasonings into chops so they adhere well.
• Heat the oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium high heat; add herbs and toss to coat.
• Arrange the pork chops in the skillet and cook until a deep golden brown, about 4 minutes; flip and cook until the other side is deep golden brown, 4 minutes more.
• Transfer to a cutting board (they will not be fully cooked).
• Melt another 2 tablespoons of butter in the skillet, over medium heat, and toss the fennel with the butter; return the chops and nestle them, along with the peaches, in the fennel.
• Transfer to the oven and roast until chops are cooked through, 145°F on an instant read meat thermometer, about 6 minutes.
• Place the chops on 4 plates and top each with 1/2 a tablespoon of butter; serve with grits, fennel, peaches, and a drizzle of pan juices.
• Season with a bit more pepper, if desired.
