AUTUMN APPLE ONION PORK CHOPS
This is a fairly common autumn dish in Indiana. It always reminds me of local harvest festivals. Crimson and gold leaves under foot, hay rides, the crisp sweet smell of the air...comfort food, pure and simple. There are many variations, but this is the favorite in our home. To be honest, I've never measured the spices before I sat down to write this, so please feel free to adjust to your own tastes.

Steps:
- Combine onion, apple, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon vinegar, thyme, and rosemary in a skillet; cook and stir mixture over medium heat until onion is lightly browned and apples are softened, about 15 minutes. Sweeten with brown sugar to taste. Set aside and keep warm.
- Arrange pork chops in a separate skillet; season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Drizzle 1 tablespoon vinegar and 1 tablespoon olive oil over pork chops. Cook pork chops over medium heat until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- Transfer pork chops to a serving dish and top with apple-onion topping. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Season flour with salt and pepper; lightly flour pork chops. Add pork chops to skillet and cook over medium heat.
- Turn chops; stir in onion, butter and apple juice. Bring to a boil, lower heat, cover and simmer for 7-8 minute.
Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples like Granny Smith, Braeburn, or Honeycrisp. These apples hold their shape well and won't get mushy when cooked.
- Slice the apples evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Use a sharp knife to cut the apples into thin, uniform slices.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the apples, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick to the pan.
- Use a non-stick pan: If you're worried about the apples sticking to the pan, use a non-stick pan. This will make it easier to cook the apples and prevent them from burning.
- Add some spices: To add some extra flavor to the apples, add some spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger. This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the apples.
- Serve the apples warm: Autumn apple chops are best served warm. You can serve them on their own or with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
Conclusion:
Autumn apple chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for fall. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and satisfying. Whether you serve them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, autumn apple chops are sure to be a hit.
