4 slices bacon, cut into 1/2-inch slices (4 oz)
3 tablespoons butter
4 bone-in pork loin chops, 1/2 inch thick (about 2 lb), trimmed of fat
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup sliced shallots

I cooked the pork chops for a little longer than the recipe stated, and they turned out a bit overcooked. Next time, I'll cook them for the recommended time.

I used chicken broth instead of apple cider, and it turned out great! The pork chops were tender and juicy, and the sauce was rich and flavorful.
