How to Make Pork Chops With Apple Cider And Apples

  1. Pat 4 pork chops (6 oz each) dry with paper towels. Season both sides with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add pork chops to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until nicely browned.
  4. Remove pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
  5. Add 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, until softened.
  6. Pour in 1 cup apple cider and bring to a simmer.
  7. Add 1 cup thinly sliced apples (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji). Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until apples are tender and the sauce has reduced by half.
  8. Stir in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and continue to cook, uncovered, for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  9. Return pork chops to the skillet and baste with the apple cider glaze. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through.
  10. Serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme, if desired.
