PORK CHOPS AND APPLE BAKE



Pork Chops and Apple Bake image

This is a simple put together meal that tastes like you cooked for hours! I made these tonight using what I had in hand and what I knew I liked. A different taste with the sweet aroma of baked apples and the tanginess from the garlic and balsamic vinegar. It provided a suttle differences with each bite. My DH and DS liked this very much. I served with baby sweet peas and smashed potatoes. The sauce can be made into a gravy but the family was hungry so I used the remaining juice as an au jus.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Opt for bone-in pork chops, as they tend to be more flavorful and juicy. Look for chops that are about 1-inch thick for even cooking.
  • Season the pork chops generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A good blend of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika will give the pork chops a delicious flavor.
  • Sear the pork chops before baking: Searing the pork chops in a hot skillet before baking helps to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a variety of apples: Feel free to mix and match different types of apples for a more complex flavor. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady apples are all great choices.
  • Add some sweetness: A little bit of brown sugar or maple syrup will help to balance out the tartness of the apples.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Make sure there is enough space between the pork chops and apples so that they can cook evenly.
  • Bake until the pork chops are cooked through: The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
