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.

APPLESAUCE PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and apple slices in the melted butter until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer onion and apple to a bowl.
• Place pork chops in the same skillet; cook over medium heat until pork chops are browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.
• Mix applesauce, brown sugar, mustard, and cinnamon into onion and apple mixture.
• Place pork chops in a 9x9-inch baking dish; season with salt and black pepper. Spoon applesauce mixture over pork chops; cover dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pork chops are no longer pink in the center, about 30 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

PORK CHOPS AND APPLES IN MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400º. Spread apples in a lightly buttered baking dish (one large enough to hold the chops in one layer) and bake for 15 minutes.
• Mix the cream and mustard in a small bowl or measuring cup. Salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
• While apples are baking, lightly salt the pork chops. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chops and cook until nicely browned, about 5 minutes a side.
• Arrange the chops over the apples. Add the wine to the skillet and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits. Boil until wine is reduced by half and then dribble it over the chops. (I eyeball the wine, just pouring it out of the bottle, I probably use a little more than ¼ cup.)
• Pour the cream and mustard mixture over the chops and apples. Shake the dish gently so the cream penetrates the apples. Be careful, the baking dish will be hot!
• Bake 20 minutes longer to finish cooking the chops. I usually then turn off the oven and let the chops stay in another 20 minutes.
• Let rest for 5 minutes or so. Serve chops and apples over orzo pasta.

PORK CHOPS AND APPLES IN MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Spread the apples in a lightly buttered gratin dish, large enough to hold the pork chops in a single layer.
• Place gratin dish in the oven and bake apples for 15 minutes.
• While apples are baking, saute the salted pork chops over medium heat until nicely colored on each side-7 to 8 minutes per side.
• Remove gratin dish from the oven and arrange the chops on top of the apples.
• Deglaze the saute pan with the white wine and reduce by half.
• Drizzle reduction over the chops.
• Mix cream (or sour cream/yogurt and milk) and mustard, adding mustard little by little until you are happy with the taste.
• Pour evenly over the chops and apples and grate pepper overall.
• Return to oven and bake an additional 15 minutes.

PORK CHOPS WITH APPLESAUCE AND GRITS

Steps:

• For the grits: In a large pot over medium heat, cook the bacon and onions until the bacon is chewy and the onions are translucent, about 1 minute. Pour in the grits and add the chicken broth. Stir together and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 30 to 40 minutes. Add the cream and cayenne, stirring them into the grits. Cover the pot and keep cooking over very low heat, stirring occasionally to keep them from sticking, until the grits are tender but still have a bite to them, another 20 to 30 minutes.
• Just before serving, stir in the cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• For the pork chops: Melt the butter with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the pork chops to the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. (They'll finish cooking in the skillet later.) Remove the pork chops to a plate.
• Put the skillet back on the heat, add the Applesauce and pour in the wine and vinegar. Cook until the liquid reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Pour in the maple syrup, stir it in and allow it to come to a bubble. Add the pork chops to the skillet, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for another 20 minutes.
• To serve, spoon a generous helping of grits onto a plate. Lay a pork chop on top of the grits, and then spoon the apples over the top. Be sure to get a little extra pan sauce onto the plate.
• Throw the apples, apple juice and lemon juice into a pan and bring it to the boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat and simmer until the apples are soft, about 15 minutes. Stir through the sugar and mix until melted. Add the cinnamon and stir through.
• Puree the mixture in a food processor, blender or food mill. If not using right away, leave to cool and then refrigerate.

APPLESAUCE-GLAZED PORK CHOPS

• Preheat oven to 350°. Place pork chops in a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet. Mix remaining ingredients in a small bowl; spoon over chops., Bake, uncovered, until a thermometer reads 145°, 20-25 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

PORK CHOPS WITH APPLE AND CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine oil, thyme, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Add pork chops, brush with the marinade, and set aside for 15 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook pork chops until browned on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until lightly browned on the other side and juices run clear, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer pork chops to a serving plate, cover, and keep warm.
• Reduce heat and add butter to the skillet. Add apple slices and cook until they start to change color, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer apples to the plate with the pork chops and keep warm.
• Stir apple juice, cream, and cornstarch together in a bowl. Add to the skillet over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil while scraping brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook and stir until sauce starts to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour sauce over pork chops and apples.

PORK CHOPS WITH APPLES & CREAMY MUSTARD SAUCE

SAUTéED PORK CHOPS WITH SWEET POTATO, APPLES AND MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Combine the cider, cinnamon and 1/4 tsp salt in a cup. Set aside.
• 2. Pat the pork chops dry and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper.
• 3. Heat a 12-in/30.5-cm skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil shimmers, add the seasoned pork chops to the pan and cook until lightly browned on the first side, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook until browned on the second side, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer the pork chops to a plate. (They will not be cooked through at this point.)
• 4. Add the sweet potato, apple, shallot, cider mixture, and a grind or two of pepper to the hot pan. Bring it all to a simmer, cover, and reduce the heat to medium-low or low-the pan should bubble, but not too aggressively. Cook the potato mixture until a fork easily pierces the partially cooked potato but there is still some resistance, about 10 minutes.
• 5. Return the pork chops to the pan (along with any juices accumulated on the plate) and nestle them into the potatoes and apples. Cover and cook until the meat is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 8 minutes longer. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• 6. Transfer the pork chops, potatoes, and apples to two warmed plates. There should be some liquid remaining in the pan to serve as a base for the sauce. (If the potatoes have absorbed all of the liquid, add 2 to 3 tbsp cider to the pan and heat it briefly over medium heat.) Stir the mustard into the pan juices with a fork. Taste the sauce and add more pepper if it needs it.
• 7. Spoon the sauce over the meat and vegetables, sprinkle the parsley over the top, and serve hot.
