PORK CHOPS AND APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Season pork chops with paprika, garlic powder, sage, thyme, salt and fresh pepper to taste.
• Place flour on a small flat plate and lightly pat the chops with flour, shaking off any excess flour so they are lightly coated.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add butter when the pan is hot.
• When the butter melts, place chops in the skillet and cook 3 1/2 to 4 minutes.
• Turn over and cook an additional 3 - 4 minutes, or until the internal temp is 145° F.

PORK CHOPS AND APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Make the applesauce: Combine the apples, sugar and 1/2 cup water in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are very tender but still juicy, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Mash the apples with a fork, or puree with an immersion blender or in a food processor for a smoother sauce. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the pork chops: Mix the paprika, garlic powder and sage in a small bowl. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper and rub all over with the paprika mixture. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Add the pork chops, reduce the heat to medium and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side and cooked through, 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove to a plate and pour off the drippings from the skillet.
• Add the chicken broth and lemon juice to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add any juices from the plate of pork to the skillet and simmer until the sauce is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the butter until smooth. Transfer the pork chops to a platter and top with the pan sauce; sprinkle with parsley. Serve with the applesauce.

PORK CHOPS WITH APPLE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a shallow pan, pour marinade over pork chops and marinate for 1 hour.

Sprinkle with a handful of fresh chopped parsley and thyme; season with salt and pepper. They should be well browned on the outside and pink in the center. Transfer the pork chops to a roasting pan, place in a single layer and set aside.
• In the same skillet, saute apples in a bit more butter and oil, add more parsley and thyme. Deglaze the pan with brandy. Pour in brown sauce and cider vinegar to create a pan sauce. Spoon the apple sauce over the pork chops. Sprinkle with more chopped herbs and salt and pepper.
• Roast in a preheated 325 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes. A meat thermometer inserted into the pork should read 155 degrees F.
