Home cooked comfort food. Pork chops always transport me back to my childhood. This recipe is a new modern take on the old version of pork chops with apple sauce. It is simple and the flavors are wonderful !What you Need :
Two boneless pork loin chops
1 box of stuffing for pork
1 green apple(granny Smith) skin left on, cut in half, slice and dice.
1 cup chicken broth ( I used 1/2 c chicken broth & 1/2 white wine - does make a difference)
3 TB Apple Jelly (don't have it? add 3 Tb apple juice and 1 TB sugar)
1 tsp Dijon mustard
3 Tb butter
1/2 tsp Thyme dried or fresh
Make stuffing according the directions on the box - set aside.
Make a slit almost all way through to pork chop, stuff with stuffing. Sprinkle with slat and pepper and fry in pan until golden on both sides. Finish it in the oven, to cook through - about 15 minutes, depending on thickness of pork chop. Until no longer pink.
In a pan, melt butter and add diced apples. Saute for about 4-5 minutes.
Add the apple jelly, let it melt down and saute for about 5 minutes.. will turn slightly syrupy.
Then add chicken broth and white wine if using it.
Add Dijon mustard and thyme.
Season with salt and pepper.
* To thicken, add about 1 tsp flour or cornstarch - makes it saucy
Pour apples and sauce over pork chop... serve with your favorite veggies or rice !
Love Every Bite !
