Pork Loin Chops with Cinnamon Apples

I haven't given you a recipe in a while, so here is what we had at my house tonight. I love searing pork chops in a hot pan to lock those juices in. My kids love juicy and they love apples, so we threw some of those in there too. My son told me that I made "apple pie pork chops"! It doesn't really taste like that but it is tasty, so enjoy!


Pork Loin Chops with Cinnamon Apples

Ingredients:

4 4 oz pork loin chops
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp ground white pepper
2 medium sized shallots, sliced thin
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
3 apples cored and diced (red variety)


Instructions:

One: Heat olive oil in a skillet on medium high heat. Meanwhile, season the pork on both sides with salt and pepper. When skillet is nice and hot, add the pork, searing until brown on both sides. Remove chops from skillet and place aside temporarily.

Two: Add the shallots, celery, and garlic to the skillet on medium heat and cook until softened and just beginning to brown. Stir in the broth, apples, and cinnamon to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Return the pork chops to the skillet and mixture, spooning some of the juices over the chops. Let cook until pork is cooked all the way through, about 7 minutes.

Three: Serve the apple mixture over the pork chops and enjoy!
