One Pan Pork Chops with Apples and Onions

Step 1

Season both sides of pork chops with kosher salt and black pepper. Add 1 Tbsp olive oil to large heavy bottomed pan (or skillet), and heat over MED-HIGH heat. Add pork chops to pan, leaving at least an inch between the chops to ensure even cooking and browning. Sear 3-5 minutes per side, or until pork chops are mostly done. Chops will continue cooking in the sauce later.

Step 2

Remove pork chops to a plate.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together chicken stock and mustard, set aside.

Step 4

Add remaining 1 Tbsp oil to the pan, then add apples and onions. Cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt, pepper, sage, rosemary, and thyme. Stir to combine.

Step 5

Pour in stock mixture, using a wooden spoon to gently scrape the bottom of the pan to release any brown bits (those are full of great flavor).

Step 6

Slide pork chops back into the pan, nestling them down in between the apples.

Step 7

Cook 2-3 minutes, until pork chops are finished cooking and liquid has reduced by half.
