Bacon, walnuts, pork chops and a scrumptious caramelized apple and onion mixture? How could anyone resist this fall family pleaser? Best of all, it cooks in one skillet, so cleanup is easy! âSimple & Delicious Test Kitchen Ingredients:
4 bacon strips, chopped |
4 boneless pork loin chops (6 ounces each) |
3 small tart apples, peeled and thinly sliced |
1 medium onion, chopped |
4 teaspoons brown sugar |
1 tablespoon butter |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 cup chicken broth |
2 packages (6 ounces each) fresh baby spinach |
3 tablespoons chopped walnuts, toasted |
Directions:
1. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels; drain, reserving 3 teaspoons drippings. In the same skillet, cook pork chops in 2 teaspoons reserved drippings over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove and keep warm.
2. Saute apples and onion in 1 teaspoon reserved drippings in the same skillet until apples are crisp-tender. Stir in the brown sugar, butter, salt, cinnamon and pepper. Add broth; bring to a boil. Add pork chops. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 4-5 minutes or until a thermometer reads 145°.
3. Remove chops to serving platter; let stand for 5 minutes. Add spinach to skillet and cook until wilted. Serve with chops. Sprinkle with bacon and walnuts. Yield: 4 servings.
