For this recipe you need four pork chops (about an inch thick and with the bone in them--they're tastier than boneless), 2 Tbsp of olive oil, salt and pepper, 1/2 C beer (you can also use dry white wine, but I don't like dry wines, hence the beer instead), 2 Tbsp chopped green onion (the book says shallot, but I think they're the same thing), 3 apples peeled, cored, and sliced, 1 onion sliced, 1/2 C chicken broth, 1 Tbsp lemon juice, and 1 Tbsp butter.
All this! Plus chicken broth, which I forgot about. |
All ready to go! |
Use a really big pan. |
Let that cook until most of the beer has evaporated, turning the pork chops once or twice. Take the pork chops out of the pan and onto a plate and add the apples and onion to the pan. The cookbook says that you're supposed to stir them until the apples start to stick (1-2 minutes), but my apples never did stick, so just go with two minutes or so.
Stir in the chicken broth and put the pork chops back in the pan. Bring the whole thing to a boil, reduce the heat so it simmers, and cover. Cook for another 5-10 minutes (or so), turning the pork chops a couple times, until the pork chops are cooked through and the apples and onion are soft. Stir in the lemon juice and butter. And you're done!
This ended up being fairly easy to make and wound up being pretty tasty. Hopefully the leftovers will be just as good!
