    Servings 4 servings

    Ingredients
     

    • 4 bone-in pork loin chops each about 1 ½ inches thick
    • Salt and pepper
    • 2 tablespoons butter
    • ½ cup chopped onions
    • ⅓ cup chopped red bell pepper
    • 2 garlic cloves
    • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
    • 4 apples
    • ¼ cup bread crumbs

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat an oven to 400°F.
    • Take two apples, peel, core and dice. Set aside the other two for use later.
    • In a medium sauce pan over medium heat, warm the butter. Add the onionss and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the red bell pepper, garlic and cumin and cook, stirring frequently for 1 minute.
    • Add the apples and cook about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and fold bread crumbs. Season with salt and pepper. Let the stuffing cool for 10 minutes.
    • Meanwhile, season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Insert a sharp paring knife into the side of a chop opposite from the bone, making a long slit along the curve all the way to the bone. Wiggle the knife to form a large pocket. Repeat with the remaining chops. Stuff each chop with stuffing, using your fingers to help pack it into the pocket. Cut the other two apples in half.
    • Place the chops on a baking sheet and top each pork chop with half an apple, place in the oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the stuffing registers 160°F, about 20 minutes.
    • ransfer the chops to a platter, cover loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve with your favorite side dish.

    Pork Chops with ApplesPin

    Today I want to share another delicious fall recipe with you. The stuffing for the pork chops is essentially onions, garlic, red bell pepper, apples and bread crumbs. If you are a meat-fruit combination fan, like me, you will love this dish. It is a fabulous, sweet and savory dish.

    Buen provecho!

      Polish cuisine offers fruit/ meat combinations. I've made something similar, and it is delicious. I think this would be really tasty.

      This sounds yummy. Do you think it could be made with pork loin instead of the chops?
