Sage Pork Chops With Apple Slaw Recipes

APPLE-SAGE PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix flour, sage, garlic, thyme, salt, allspice, and paprika together in a bowl. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture over both sides of each pork chop.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops in hot oil until browned completely, 2 to 3 minutes more side. Remove pork chops to a platter.
• Cook and stir onion in the oil and drippings retained in the skillet until tender, about 3 minutes; add apple slices and continue cooking until the apple slices are tender, about 2 minutes. Pour apple juice over the onion and apple mixture; add brown sugar and remaining flour mixture and stir to dissolve.
• Return pork chops to the skillet. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cook at a simmer until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

SAGE PORK CHOPS WITH APPLE SLAW

Steps:

• Combine 1 tablespoon sage, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over pork chops and let them "marinate" at room temperature about 10 minutes. Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add pork chops and brown well on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
• Wipe out the skillet and heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium heat. Add onion, apple and sage. Saute, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add cabbage, carrots, vinegar and salt, saute about 5 minutes. Add the broth and return pork chops to the pan, spooning some of the slaw over the chops.
• Cover and cook another 5 to 7 minutes. Serve.

SAGE-RUBBED PORK CHOPS WITH WARM APPLE SLAW

Steps:

• Chops: combine the sage, garlic, salt and a few grinds of fresh black pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over the chops and let them stand at room temperature for ten minutes.
• Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chops and brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
• Slaw: Wipe out the frying pan, add fresh oil and heat over medium heat.
• Add the onion, apple and sage and cook, stirring a few times, until softened and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the cabbage, carrot, vinegar and salt and continue cooking until the veggies start to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the broth to the pan, then return the chops, burying them in the vegetables.
• Cover and cook just until the chops have a slight blush in the center - loin is lean and should not be overcooked - about 5 to 7 minutes longer.
• To serve: arrange the warm slaw on plates, and top with a pork chop and pan juices.
