Instructions

1

Start the apple sauce: melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add diced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and water. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are soft. Mash to desired consistency.

2

While sauce cooks, pat pork chops dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear pork chops for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 145F.

Tip: Let the chops rest for 5 minutes after cooking. The temperature will rise another 5 degrees and the juices redistribute.

4

Serve the pork chops with a generous spoonful of warm apple sauce and fresh thyme sprigs.
