1
medium unpeeled cooking apple, sliced
2
tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/4
teaspoon ground cinnamon
2
pork rib chops, 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick (about 1/4 pound each)
  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F. Place apples in 1 1/2-quart casserole. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.
  • 2 Remove fat from pork. Spray 8- or 10-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat 1 to 2 minutes. Cook pork in hot skillet about 5 minutes, turning once, until light brown.
  • 3 Place pork in single layer on apples. Cover and bake about 45 minutes or until pork is slightly pink when cut near the bone and apples are tender.

Expert Tips

Follow cook times for pork carefully. Today’s pork is lean and requires shorter cooking times. Overcooking pork will make it tough.

Use a sharp knife to cut most of the fat from pork chops, being careful not to cut into the meat.

Serve hearty rye bread and pickled beets to complete an Oktoberfest menu.

This is an amazing recipe. I made it for my husband for dinner and we loved it!!!! We added a dinner salad and had a great, comfort food meal.

It's so amazing how good this simple recipe is! I doubled it, making a bit more brown sugar/cinnamon mixture than called for. A couple of days later, I reheated the chops and apples and baked two small sweet potatoes. It was better the 2nd day, and the sugar/cinnamon mixture mixed with the sweet potatoes - to die for! This recipe does not need any changes unless you just want more of it!
