Pork Chops with Apples and Onions

Put the pork chops in a small dish. Sprinkle both sides of the pork chops with meat tenderizer and Worcestershire sauce. Turn them to coat and let them marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to one hour, depending on how much time you have.

Heat a medium sauce pan to medium heat. Add the onion, apples, butter, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Stir to combine and allow to cook slowly for about five minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

When the apples and onion have softened, turn the heat to medium-high and add the apple cider. Let it bubble and reduce while you cook the pork chops.

Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan with the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook for 7 minutes on each side for 1-inch chops. Your chops should be barely pink in the middle when they are done. If they are thicker, you’ll need to add time on each side.

Remove the pork chops from the pan to plates for serving. Leave the heat on medium-high and swirl the chicken stock into the pork chop pan to remove any juices and pork flavor. Pour the chicken stock from the pork chop pan into the apple mixture and allow the mixture to reduce and bubble until you’re ready to serve.

Top the pork chops with the apples, onions, and sauce. Serve with your favorite potato, bread, and veggie, and ENJOY!
