Dijon Pork Chops with Cabbage and Fennel image

While living in Switzerland for a few years, my friends introduced me to an area renowned for their cabbage, pork and potato dishes. I decided to try a cabbage and fennel combination and believe they complement each other well. -Grace Voltolina, Westport, Connecticut
