Directions

Prep 5 minCook 20 min
  1. 1

    Pat the pork dry, then season both sides generously with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Melt about two-thirds of the butter, then sear the pork until well browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with foil.

  3. 3

    Return the skillet to medium-high and melt the remaining butter. Add the apples and onion; cook, stirring, until the onion is translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, rosemary, cinnamon, and cayenne; cook 30 seconds until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Pour in the apple juice and cream, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to a lively simmer and reduce slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Nestle the pork and any accumulated juices into the sauce. Simmer gently, turning once, until the thickest part of the chops reaches 145°F, about 3 to 5 minutes total depending on thickness.

  6. 6

    Let rest off heat for 3 to 5 minutes, then spoon the apples, onions, and sauce over the chops to serve.
