Ingredients
- 6 succulent pork chops
- 3 large apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- ¼ cup of rich brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon of fragrant ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons of creamy butter
- pinch of salt and pepper to suit your taste buds
- ½ cup of dry sherry
Step 1
Start by browning the chops in a spacious skillet for roughly 2 minutes on each side, then set them aside. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Next, create a bed of apple slices at the base of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle the apples with a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon for a sweet touch. Add small dabs of butter or margarine on top of the apples. Place the browned pork chops on the bed of apples and season them with salt and pepper according to your preference. To enhance the flavors, pour a generous amount of sherry over the dish.
Step 3
Cover the baking dish and let it bake in the preheated oven for about an hour, or until the pork chops are tender and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). This will ensure a juicy and flavorful outcome. Enjoy this delightful dish with your favorite sides for a satisfying meal.
