Pork chops can be dry and a little boring, but not if you make them with this recipe! It’s a one pan meal in which we incorporate delicious Gala and Fuji Washington apples, chicken stock and rosemary as the main flavorings. The result is a juicy, flavorful main dish.

It’s great served with a side of green salad or mashed potatoes and green beans.

You can also try this recipe with Granny Smith Washington apples, if you prefer a tangier flavor, but we love the flavor combination of sweet Fuji or Gala apples in savory dishes, so we used one of each. Don’t be afraid to use cinnamon and nutmeg in this recipe, you just need a little and it just balances out the flavors.

Pork Chops with Washington Apples

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:
salt and pepper
2 pounds boneless or bone in smoked pork chops
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium Washington Gala or Fuji apples, sliced.
½ small yellow onion, sliced.
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
1 ½ teaspoons flour
1 cup chicken stock

Procedure:

Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper.
Set a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Add the pork chops and cook for 4 minutes on each side.
Remove the pork chops and set aside. Add the onions and apples to the pan, and season them with rosemary, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Whisk the flour together with the cold chicken stock and add it to the pan. Return the pork chops back to the skillet, being sure to add in all the drippings that are on the plate.
Continue cooking over medium heat until pork chops have reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees, about 2-3 minutes. Taste the sauce and add more salt and pepper to taste.
