Pork chops were on sale at Oleson’s today, so Jarren, the love of my life, and I, went and picked some up. I decided to to do apple sauce with this, because apple and pork is one of my favorite pairings between meat and fruit. I hope you enjoy.

(This is a fairly simple and quick recipe to prepare. The amount of each ingredient you use is really up to you, and completely dependent on taste, so you may need to try this two or three times before you get it just the way you want it. Fortunately preparing a single piece at a time is not a problem.)

Ingredients:

+ pork chops
+ tart apples
+ brown sugar
+ cinnamon
+ nutmeg
+ soy sauce
+ orange or apple juice
+ salt
+ pepper
+ oil
+ butter

Preparation:

1. Marinate your pork chops in equal portions of soy sauce and juice. You can decide which flavor of juice you want. I prefer orange, as I am partial to the citric acid, but do as you please. I suggest leaving the meat in your sauce for at least a few hours.

2. Pan fry the pork chops in a little oil until they are completely cooked. Set aside.

3. Add the butter, sliced apple, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper, preferably pre-mixed, to your pan. It will cook down fairly quickly, so be sure to take it out before it’s overcooked. Pour the apples and sauce over your chops and serve.

Enjoy!
