How to Make Baked Pork Chops With Apple Sherry

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Season 6 pork chops (about 1 inch thick) generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side.
  4. Arrange 2 medium apples, thinly sliced, in the bottom of the skillet.
  5. Sprinkle apples with 2 tablespoons brown sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Dot with 2 tablespoons butter.
  6. Place the browned pork chops on top of the apples.
  7. Pour 1/2 cup dry sherry over the chops and apples.
  8. Cover the skillet tightly with foil or a lid.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  10. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
