2 tablespoons neutral oil
2 bone-in pork chops
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
3/4 cup chicken stock
1 shallot, diced
1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
2 teaspoons apple butter

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides and cook, flipping once, until nicely browned and cooked to 150 degrees F or desired doneness, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Set the chops aside and reserve the skillet.

Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the stock is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Whisk in the mustard and apple butter.
