These pork chops are officially my favorite as of today! I took what I knew about baking pork chops and made a new, and if do say so myself, awesome recipe! The photo doesn’t do it much justice, if anyone makes it and takes a better photo, send it to me and I’ll post it!
Ingredients
- 4 1 inch thick pork chops
- 2 medium apples (I prefer gala) sliced
- one small yellow onion, sliced in quarter moons
- 3 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
Sauce
- 1 1/2 cup applesauce
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Tools
- 9 in x 13 in baking dish
- cooking spray
- cutting board
- chef’s knife
Procedure
- Preheat oven to 375
- Combine all sauce ingredients, set aside
- Spray baking dish, set aside
- core apples (if you don’t have an apple corer-I don’t- quarter the apples and very carefully cut the center of the apple off by slicing at an angle) slice into 1/4 inch pieces. spread into bottom of pan
- thinly slice garlic cloves and spread into pan
- slice onions into quarter moons. place in pan
- lay pork chops on top of apple/onion/garlic mix. ensure they do not overlap and they are balanced in the pan (i.e. don’t but three on one side and one on the other)
- spoon sauce mixture over everything
- Bake for 35-45 minutes. make sure the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F
Serve with a spoonful of apple mixture on top and enjoy!
