One step at a time
Let’s make it
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss apple slices with cinnamon and ¼ teaspoon salt. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes, stirring halfway.
- Season pork chops with remaining salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side.
- Reduce heat to medium, drizzle maple syrup over pork chops, and cook an additional 3-4 minutes, spooning glaze over chops until internal temperature reaches 145°F.
- Remove pork chops from skillet, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 3 minutes.
- Serve pork chops topped with roasted apples and drizzled with extra maple glaze from the pan.
A little kitchen know-how
Let pork chops rest 3 minutes after cooking to lock in juices before serving.
