Brown sugar and butter create a sweet sauce that marries well with pork chops and apples. Choose a tart apple for more flavor and contrast.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless pork loin chops, cut 3/4 to 1 inch thick
- Salt
- Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup thinly sliced red apple (1 medium)
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
Directions
- Trim fat from chops. Sprinkle chops with salt and pepper; set aside.
- In a large skillet melt butter over medium heat until it sizzles. Add apple; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Push apple to sides of skillet. Add chops; cook for 4 minutes. Turn chops, moving apple aside as needed. Spoon apple slices over chops. Sprinkle with pecans and brown sugar.
- Cook, covered, for 2 to 4 minutes more or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in center of chops registers 145 degrees F. Serve chops with apple slices and cooking juices.
