This is one of the best ways I have found to get my kids to eat pork chops. Of course, this will only work if your kids like cooked apples like mine do.
Trim the visible fat from the chops, and season them with salt and pepper. heat a little oil in a skillet and brown the pork chops and some chopped onion till everything is golden to dark brown. Add a little water and scrape the pan to loosen up the caramelized onions. Peel and slice the apples (any type will do but we like sweeter apples best) into the pan with the chops and onions. Sprinkle in a little cinnamon, maybe 1/2 - 1 tsp, and a 1/4 cup of brown sugar. Cover and let simmer till the pork chops are tender and the apples look like apple sauce.
I like to serve this dish with steamed cabbage, but no one else here likes that so I will make creamed new potatoes and corn on the cob.
The kids and I like to eat the pork and apples all mixed together. My husband, the picky eater, won't eat the apples, but likes the pork chops cooked this way.
