For best results, use bone-in pork chops for maximum flavor. To toast the pecans, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned. Watch carefully to prevent burning. If the praline sauce becomes too thick, add a tablespoon of milk at a time until desired consistency is reached. Serve with a side of mashed sweet potatoes or roasted asparagus for a complete and balanced meal.
