PORK CHOPS AND APPLE BAKE



Pork Chops and Apple Bake image

This is a simple put together meal that tastes like you cooked for hours! I made these tonight using what I had in hand and what I knew I liked. A different taste with the sweet aroma of baked apples and the tanginess from the garlic and balsamic vinegar. It provided a suttle differences with each bite. My DH and DS liked this very much. I served with baby sweet peas and smashed potatoes. The sauce can be made into a gravy but the family was hungry so I used the remaining juice as an au jus.

  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Make sure that the pork chops and apples are not overcrowded in the baking dish. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Bake the pork chops until they are cooked through: Bake the pork chops until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that they are cooked through but still juicy.
