Notes: The original recipe said cook chops five minutes a side but the internal temp would have given my family a nasty case of trichinosis! Consider how thick or thin your chops are. I've started using a thermometer for best results. This is very tasty and easy. Also, the original recipe called for two pears. I'm up to five and think my family would like more if they fit in the skillet!
