Gather and prepare all ingredients.

Carefully cut each peach in half around the seam, then twist in half to separate. If the pit clings, carefully cut around it, then slice each half into three pieces and set them aside.

Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.

Once the pan is hot, gently place the pork in the pan. Let the pork cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms. Remove the cooked pork from the skillet and set aside on a plate while you make the sauce.

Turn the heat to medium, add the peaches, cut side down, and cook undisturbed for 2 minutes.

Deglaze the skillet with the chicken broth and let it reduce by half, 2-3 minutes.

Next, add brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard, and simmer for about 2-3 minutes.

Lastly, turn off the heat, add the butter, and stir until your sauce has thickened, for about 2 minutes.
