Pork Chop and Fresh Apple Saute

This summery dish of pork chops and seasonal apples is a great addition to your recipe repertoire.

Serves: 2
Cook Time: 20 Minutes

Ingredients

• 2 (3/4-inch thick) Smithfield Pork Chops
• 1/3 cup low salt chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons raisins
• 1 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
• 2 medium apples, thinly sliced and peeled
• 1 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• Salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps

Combine chicken broth, raisins, and vinegar in a small bowl and set aside. Place a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter. When butter is melted and sizzling, add apples and sprinkle with sugar. Sauté until apple slices are golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add broth mixture all at once; simmer until liquid is syrupy and reduced to about 3 tablespoons, about 1 minute. Transfer mixture to a bowl. Wipe skillet clean. Pat pork chops dry and season with salt and pepper. Place skillet back over medium-high heat until very hot. Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter. When butter is melted and sizzling add chops and sear until browned on bottom, 3 to 4 minutes; turn chops and sear until browned and pork is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer chops to serving plates and spoon apple mixture over.
