Share:
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons butter divided use
- 4 bone in pork chops approximately 5-6 ounces each
- 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons apple cider divided use, fresh cider is best
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage
- 2 cups apples cored and thinly sliced such as Pink Lady or Honeycrisp
- Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions
- In a large skillet melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Season the pork generously with salt and pepper; cook for 6 minutes on each side or until deep golden brown.
- Add 1/2 cup of cider to the pan and simmer for an additional 6 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork chops registers 145 degrees F.
- While the chops are cooking, melt the rest of the butter in another large pan over medium heat. Add the apples, and cook for 5 minutes or until the apples start to soften.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of apple cider to the apples, turn the heat to high and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Season the apples with salt to taste.
- Transfer the pork chops to a plate. Whisk the mustard and sage into the cider drippings from the pork pan; season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Place the apples on the plate with the pork and pour the sauce over the top. Serve immediately.
Notes
- This recipe calls for apple cider, as in the juice. Do not use cider vinegar!!!
- Leftovers will stay fresh in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- It's important to use a meat thermometer to make sure your chops are properly cooked. If they're overcooked, they could end up dry.
