Ingredients

  • 6 boneless pork chops
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons crumbled dried sage
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 3 granny smith apples (or other tart variety, sliced 1/4 inch thick)
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup golden raisin

Method

  • Using salt and sage, season pork chops evenly on both sides. In a large skillet over a medium flame, heat the vegetable oil and brown pork chops on both sides. Transfer chops to a shallow baking dish and save pan drippings.
  • Peel, core, and slice apples layering them over pork chops. Drizzle the maple syrup over the apples slices.
  • Sprinkle flour over the pan drippings that were saved and cook until brown, stirring occasionally. Add chicken broth and stir constantly until mixture is smooth. Bring to a boil, stir in vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and raisins. Pour mixture over the pork chops and apples, cover pan with aluminum foil, and bake at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes.
