These seared Cinnamon Pork Chops are topped with sweet, caramelized apples and onions and served warm. This dish is the perfect kind of sweet and savory weeknight meal.
0 Chop the apples and onion into bite-sized pieces with a sharp knife.
1 Season the pork chops on both sides with the cinnamon, salt and pepper, and set aside.
2 Heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
3 Add the apples and onion to the skillet, and cook for 10 minutes. You want them to start to brown, but not fall apart, so when they get some color to them, move to the next step.
4 Remove the apples and onion from the heat, and place in a bowl or on a plate.
5 Add the other tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Turn the heat up to medium-high.
6 Place the seasoned pork chops into the skillet and sear until browned on the outside. (This is going to give them color, but it will not cook them all the way through unless they are very thin.)
7 Pour the wine on top of the pork chops, and use a wooden spoon to scrape the browned bits off the bottom of the skillet. Let the wine come to a simmer.
8 Once the wine is bubbling, add the apples and onion back into the pan with the chops. Turn down the heat to medium-low. Cook until caramelized and until the pork's internal temperature reads 145°F, about 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chops.
9 Serve warm, and enjoy!
