Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 Golden Delicious apples, chopped
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 ounces golden raisins, a handful
1-inch piece fresh ginger root
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 cups all natural apple juice or cider, plus a splash for pan sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Salt and pepper

Steps:

If sauce begins to spatter as it bubbles, reduce heat back a little, but it should be allowed to reduce and form quickly. Once apples are soft and sauce forms, remove it from the heat.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add oil to the pan. Season chops on 1 side with salt and pepper. Using a pair of tongs, add chops to hot skillet seasoned side down. Season the opposite side of the chops with salt and pepper. Brown and caramelize the chops 2 minutes on each side, then reduce heat to medium and cook another 5 to 6 minutes, turning occasionally, until juices run clear. Remove chops from heat and let them rest a couple of minutes for juice to redistribute. Deglaze the pan with a splash of apple juice and 2 tablespoons of butter. Pour pan sauce over chops. Remove ginger from the sauce and top chops with generous portions of warm golden apple sauce.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds Golden Delicious apples, peeled and chopped
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
4 bone-in pork chops (1/2-inch thick; about 6 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
Chopped fresh parsley, for topping

Steps:

  • Make the applesauce: Combine the apples, sugar and 1/2 cup water in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are very tender but still juicy, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Mash the apples with a fork, or puree with an immersion blender or in a food processor for a smoother sauce. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the pork chops: Mix the paprika, garlic powder and sage in a small bowl. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper and rub all over with the paprika mixture. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Add the pork chops, reduce the heat to medium and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side and cooked through, 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove to a plate and pour off the drippings from the skillet.
  • Add the chicken broth and lemon juice to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add any juices from the plate of pork to the skillet and simmer until the sauce is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the butter until smooth. Transfer the pork chops to a platter and top with the pan sauce; sprinkle with parsley. Serve with the applesauce.

Tips:

  • Use firm apples: Firm apples, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp, hold their shape better when cooked and won't turn to mush.
  • Peel and core the apples: Peeling and coring the apples removes the skin and seeds, which can make the applesauce bitter.
  • Add some spices: A pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger can add a warm, autumnal flavor to the applesauce.
  • Don't overcook the apples: Overcooked applesauce can become mushy and bland. Cook the apples just until they are soft and tender, but still hold their shape.
  • Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender can help you quickly and easily puree the applesauce.
  • Serve the applesauce warm or cold: Applesauce can be served warm or cold. Serve it warm with pork chops, chicken, or fish. Serve it cold as a snack or dessert.

Conclusion:

Applesauce is a versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It is also a healthy and delicious snack or dessert. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make your own homemade applesauce in no time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, try making applesauce.
