How to Make Apple Poached Pork Chops
- Pat 4 (6 oz) bone-in pork chops dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
- Pour in 2 cups of apple juice, 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon into the skillet.
- Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside, tenting with foil to keep warm.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour with 2 tablespoons of cold water until smooth.
- Pour the flour mixture into the skillet with the remaining apple juice mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency (about 1-2 minutes).
- Serve the pork chops immediately, spooning the delicious apple sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh thyme sprigs (optional).
