Here’s a hearty dish with the meat and side all-in-one! Well, actually, you would've been able to see it plated, if only I had remembered to take a photo, instead of eat it!!!

| Seared and sauced! |
All it takes is a quick sear for the chops; just be sure to
brown them well, then follow up with oven roasting, rendering them juicy and
tender.
Finish by topping the pork chops with sweet savory apples
and a creamy sauce including mustard, and the “secret” ingredient ~ a splash of
bourbon ~ for one of the best possible tastes.

| Oven ready |
Pork and apples go together like “rock and roll.” If that’s a new combo for you, you must
try this ~ it’s a homey dish that I bet you’ll love as much as we do!

Bake for 30-35 minutes, covered, depending upon thickness of

Let stand in skillet 5 minutes before serving.
ENJOY!
ENOUGH ALREADY!!! It is snowing yet again, "they're" predicting anywhere from 6 to 10 inches of the stuff before it ends late afternoon. That will make a total of 70" so far. Yikes!!!
Pam,
ReplyDeleteThis looks like perfect dish to make today to warm us up. I love pork and apples together, and the sauce sounds wonderful with the bourbon!
I'm with you about the snow. Soon we will be buried in the snow. I want Spring now!
Pork and apples are a beautiful pairing. Very comforting meal on these cold blustery days.

ReplyDeleteIt looked rich enough to have contained cream, I love Honeycrisp apples and everything is better with bourgon. This is a winner.

It looks really good Pam and I have that same problem getting plated shots prior to eating. I like a nice snowfall or two but 70" seems a bit much.
