Boneless Pork Chops with Apple Chutney

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

4 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons coarse salt, plus more for seasoning
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
4 boneless center-cut pork chops, cut 3/4 inch thick (1 1/4 pounds)
1 large onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
4 green apples (such as Granny Smith), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
Pinch of cayenne pepper

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the pork chops; add to the skillet. Sauté until golden brown, about 2 minutes; flip. Cook 2 minutes more; place the pan in the oven. Roast until the meat is cooked through and registers 155°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a platter.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat; add the onion. Sauté over medium heat until translucent and beginning to brown, about 6 minutes. Add the apples; sauté 4 minutes more. Add the vinegar, raisins, ginger, mustard, and cayenne. Stir well to combine; cover. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the apples are very tender but still holding their shape, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; serve over the pork chops.
