Steps:
- 1. Combine the cider, cinnamon and 1/4 tsp salt in a cup. Set aside.
- 2. Pat the pork chops dry and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper.
- 3. Heat a 12-in/30.5-cm skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil shimmers, add the seasoned pork chops to the pan and cook until lightly browned on the first side, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook until browned on the second side, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer the pork chops to a plate. (They will not be cooked through at this point.)
- 4. Add the sweet potato, apple, shallot, cider mixture, and a grind or two of pepper to the hot pan. Bring it all to a simmer, cover, and reduce the heat to medium-low or low-the pan should bubble, but not too aggressively. Cook the potato mixture until a fork easily pierces the partially cooked potato but there is still some resistance, about 10 minutes.
- 5. Return the pork chops to the pan (along with any juices accumulated on the plate) and nestle them into the potatoes and apples. Cover and cook until the meat is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 8 minutes longer. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
- 6. Transfer the pork chops, potatoes, and apples to two warmed plates. There should be some liquid remaining in the pan to serve as a base for the sauce. (If the potatoes have absorbed all of the liquid, add 2 to 3 tbsp cider to the pan and heat it briefly over medium heat.) Stir the mustard into the pan juices with a fork. Taste the sauce and add more pepper if it needs it.
- 7. Spoon the sauce over the meat and vegetables, sprinkle the parsley over the top, and serve hot.

SAUTEED APPLES AND ONIONS
This was once a pioneer favorite. Yes, it sounds weird, but it's delicious. You'll want to have something to go with this that has some protein, like a garden burger or a brown rice packet, both of which you can microwave. Apples and onions only takes about 10 minutes, a few dollars and it's delicious as a topping for rice or even by itself for a light snack.

SAUTEED APPLES
In my growing up years, serving this dish meant that autumn had certainly arrived! Mom served these "fried apples", with their delicious cinnamon flavor, alongside hot buttered biscuits, and freshly ground homemade sausage. Yumm!! It also is a delicious accompaniment with meats at other meals, particularly ham or pork.

Tips for Sautéed Apples:
- Choose the Right Apples: Use firm, tart apples like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn for sautéing. These apples hold their shape well and won't become mushy.
- Slice Apples Evenly: Cut the apples into uniform slices or cubes so they cook evenly. This will ensure that all the apples are tender and caramelized.
- Use Unsalted Butter: Unsalted butter allows you to control the amount of salt in the dish. You can also use vegan butter or oil if you prefer.
- Add Spices and Sweeteners: Experiment with different spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom to enhance the flavor of the apples. You can also add sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or brown sugar to taste.
- Cook Over Medium Heat: Sauté the apples over medium heat to prevent them from burning. Stir them frequently to ensure even cooking.
- Serve Warm: Sautéed apples are best served warm. They can be served as a side dish, topping for pancakes or waffles, or even as a dessert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Conclusion:
Sautéed apples are a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. With just a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of cooking time, you can create a flavorful and healthy side dish or dessert. So next time you're looking for an easy and tasty recipe, give sautéed apples a try. You won't be disappointed!
