Pork Chops with Cinnamon Apples

Combine first 3 ingredients and sprinkle over the four pork chops. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the pork chops; cook 3 minutes on each side or until done. Remove pork from pan and cover with foil to keep warm.

In a medium sized bowl, toss the apples in the brown sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon and a dash of salt. In a pan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the apple mixture. Cook 5 minutes or until apples are tender, stirring frequently.

Optional: I like to serve the apples and pork chops with buttered poppy seed noodles. I cook egg noodles according to the package directions, but you could use whatever noodles you’d like. Then I add the butter and black poppy seeds to the cooked noodles.
