Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1 slice bacon, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, quartered and thinly sliced
  • 1 medium apple, cored and shredded on a box grater
  • 1/2 medium green cabbage, shredded
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
  • 1 bone-in pork loin chop
  • kosher salt
  • ground black pepper

Method

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. When shimmering, add the bacon and saute until it begins to crisp. Add the onion and saute until soft, 5-8 minutes.
  • Add the apple, salt and cabbage; continue to saute until the cabbage wilts, about 5 minutes. Add the cream, Dijon mustard and whole grain mustard; stir well to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a very low simmer, and leave it to cook.
  • Preheat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Liberally season pork chop with salt and pepper on both sides. When the pan is hot, add the chop and cook until a deep golden brown on both sides, 2-4 minutes each side. Transfer pan to oven and cook another 5-8 minutes, until the internal temperature is 150°F.
  • Remove the chop to a plate, tent with foil and let stand for 10 minutes to rest. Slice pork against the grain. Divide cabbage between two warmed plates, top each with half the pork, and serve.
