AUTUMN APPLE ONION PORK CHOPS



Autumn Apple Onion Pork Chops image

This is a fairly common autumn dish in Indiana. It always reminds me of local harvest festivals. Crimson and gold leaves under foot, hay rides, the crisp sweet smell of the air...comfort food, pure and simple. There are many variations, but this is the favorite in our home. To be honest, I've never measured the spices before I sat down to write this, so please feel free to adjust to your own tastes.

3 cups turnip, diced
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh sage, chopped
2 cups apple cider
1 cup reduced sodium chicken stock

  • Remove the pork chops from the brine and pat dry. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
