PORK CHOPS WITH APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Trim the chops of excess fat. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat a 14-inch cast-iron skillet (if you have a smaller one, you'll need to work in batches) over high heat, and then swirl in the olive oil. Lay in the pork chops and don't move them for a few minutes, to assure a good golden sear forms. Turn and brown well on the second side for a total of about 10 minutes. Transfer the chops to a warm plate.
• Swirl the butter into the pan. Add the onion and apples. Saute until the onion slices are lightly caramelized and the apples have begun to soften, about 8 minutes. Stir in the beer or other liquid. Return chops to the pan.
• Cook until the pork is tender, about 15 more minutes (depending on the size of the chops), turning halfway through and covering the chops with the apple mixture. If the apple mixture needs a little thickening, transfer the chops to the warm plate again and simmer the mixture on high for a few minutes to reduce. Serve the chops over rice or mashed potatoes with a large spoonful of the apple-onion mixture over the top.

• 3. In large oven proof skillet or chicken fryer, heat a little olive oil or margarine over high heat, just enough to coat the bottom of the skillet. Sear the chops on one side only for about 3-4 minutes or until nicely seared. Remove chops to a plate.
• 4. Add apple mixture to the pan drippings in the skillet. Cook on medium heat for about 5-10 minutes or until liquid comes to a boil and apples just begin to soften. Remove from heat. Remove about half of the apples, add the sliced onions to the remaining apples in the skillet and toss well.
• 5. Place chops over apples and onions, seared side up, top each chop with a pat of butter, and cover with remaining apples.
• 6. Cover with lid or foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove and baste with liquid in the skillet. Cover and bake another 15 minutes or until internal temp reaches at least 145 degrees (medium-rare), 160 degrees (medium), or 170 degrees (well-done) on a meat thermometer.
• 7. Allow to rest 15 minutes before serving. Meat temperature will continue to rise another 5-10 degrees while resting so keep that in mind when calculating when to remove your chops from the oven. *NOTE: If chops are boneless, cooking time may need to be reduced. If chops are thicker then oven time may need to be increased. *TIPS - for larger quantities, allow 1 apple, 1 T brown sugar, 1 pat butter per chop and 1 small onion per two additional chops. Sear chops in batches and after deglazing pan with apples and liquid transfer ingredients to a large baking pan, following layering instructions. Bake as instructed above.
