How to Make Baked Pork Chops With Cinnamon Apples
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Season the pork chops generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
- Remove pork chops from skillet and set aside.
- Add sliced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon to the skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples begin to soften.
- Pour in apple cider and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Return pork chops to the skillet. Pour the apple mixture evenly over the pork chops.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme (optional).
