Tender, fall-off-the-bone pork chops braised in a savory broth with sweet apples and caramelized onions. A comforting and rustic dish.

Ingredients

Servings4
  • Pork Chops (bone-in or boneless)4
  • Vegetable Oil2 tbsp
  • Onions2, sliced
  • Apples (e.g., Honeycrisp or Fuji)2, cored and sliced
  • Chicken Broth1.5 cups
  • Dijon Mustard1 tbsp
  • Thyme1 tsp dried or 2 sprigs fresh
  • Saltto taste
  • Black Pepperto taste

Steps

  1. 1

    Season pork chops generously with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops on both sides until well-browned. Remove chops and set aside.

  3. 3

    Add sliced onions to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and beginning to caramelize, about 8-10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add sliced apples and cook for another 3-5 minutes until slightly softened.

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth and Dijon mustard. Pour this mixture into the pot.

  6. 6

    Return the pork chops to the pot. Add thyme. Bring the liquid to a simmer.

  7. 7

    Cover the pot, reduce heat to low, and braise for 30-40 minutes, or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through (internal temperature 145°F/63°C).

  8. 8

    Remove pork chops and serve with the apples, onions, and braising liquid.
