Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 deg F.

Tips:
- To achieve tender and flavorful pork chops, use a meat mallet or tenderizer to flatten them before cooking. This helps break down the fibers and allows the marinade to penetrate more deeply.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the pork chops. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming tough.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the pork chops in a grill pan over medium heat. Just be sure to preheat the pan before adding the chops.
- For a crispy crust, sear the pork chops in a hot skillet with a little bit of oil.
- To prevent the apples from burning, add them to the pan after the pork chops have been cooked.
- If you don't have caraway seeds, you can use fennel seeds or cumin seeds as a substitute.
- Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.
