SWEET AND TANGY APPLE PORK CHOPS



Sweet and Tangy Apple Pork Chops image

This is a recipe I created using the idea that pork and apples go splendidly together! The seasonings give the pork a sweet and slightly spicy taste. The apple cider adds to the sweetness, while bringing a unique tartness as it is absorbed into the meat. Serve with applesauce, if desired. Hope you enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops. Look for pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help to ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Brine the pork chops. Brining the pork chops in a mixture of water, salt, and sugar will help to tenderize them and keep them moist. You can brine the pork chops for as little as 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Season the pork chops liberally. Before cooking, be sure to season the pork chops generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the pork chops from tasting bland.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat. Cooking the pork chops over medium heat will help to prevent them from overcooking and becoming dry. Cook the pork chops for 6-8 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving. Once the pork chops are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to redistribute the juices and make the pork chops more tender.

Conclusion:

Sweet and tangy pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give sweet and tangy pork chops a try!
