Skillet Apple Pork Chops
Here's what you'll need:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 2-4 bone-in pork chops
- 3/4 teaspoon of kosher salt
- 3/4 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup of unsalted chicken stock
- 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh sage
- 1 1/2 teaspoons of chopped fresh rosemary
- 2 medium apples, thinly sliced
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
Instructions:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of oil to the pan and swirl to coat evenly.
- Generously sprinkle both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper.
- Add pork chops to the heated skillet. Cook about 5-7 minutes on each side depending on the thickness of the chop. Remove the chops from the pan when cooked through or the center reaches 145 degrees.
- While your chops are cooking, whisk together the chicken stock and mustard in a small bowl. Set aside for later. Additionally, slice up your apples and onion, and chops up the herbs.
- After the chops are removed from the skillet, add the remaining oil and swirl to coat.
- Add the chopped sage and rosemary, sliced apples and onions to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until fragrant, stirring occasionally.
- Lastly, stir in the stock mixture. Allow for a light simmer.
- Return the pork chops to the pan and cook for a few more minutes or until the liquid has reduced.
