Pork Chops With Granny Smith Apples - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
24 ounces pork chops
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
2 small granny smith apples, halved
1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons coarse grain mustard

Preparation

Mix together the flour, cumin, salt and pepper on a large plate. Lightly coat each chop with the flour mixture, set aside.
Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Sprinkle the apple halves with a dash of salt and pepper. Cook the apples cut-side down about 5 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan, cover and set aside.
Place the chops in the skillet, sprinkle with parsley, and cook until golden brown and crispy, 4-5 minutes per side.
While the pork is cooking, whisk the broth and vinegar together.
Remove pork when done and set aside.
Pour the broth into the skillet, stirring and scraping up brown bits. Bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened.
Divide the pork among 4 plates and pour some sauce over each chop. Serve with an apple half and a dab of mustard on each plate.
