• Season pork chops with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high until shimmering.

• Making space in the skillet, return pork chops to pan, surrounding them with snap peas. If necessary, you can mound snap peas on top of pork, but make sure the meat sits directly on the bottom of pan. Scatter feta over pork and snap peas. Cover and cook over low heat until pork chops are just cooked through, 3 to 6 minutes longer.

PERFECT SIMPLE ROASTED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Sprinkle chops on all sides with thyme, salt, and pepper. Place on a baking sheet.

RESTAURANT-STYLE PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat a broiler or light a charcoal grill.
• In a small nonreactive bowl, whisk together the syrup, vinegar, sugar and cinnamon.
• Place a small pan over medium heat, add the pecans and about 2 tablespoons of the maple-syrup sauce and cook for a few minutes, until the nuts are glazed and fragrant. Transfer the nuts to a plate and spread them out to cool. Transfer the cooled nuts to a cutting board, chop roughly and set aside.
• Season the pork chops aggressively with salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil. When the broiler is hot, or the coals are covered with gray ash and you can hold your hand 5 inches above them for only 1 to 2 seconds, broil or grill the meat for approximately 7 minutes per side. Brush with some of the remaining maple glaze every 2 or 3 minutes, turning them frequently to prevent the sugar from burning.
• When the chops are cooked, remove from the broiler or grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Meanwhile, slice the cored apples into thick rounds, drizzle with olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper and place on the broiler pan or grill until tender when pierced with a fork. These, too, should be brushed with the maple glaze and turned frequently.
• Serve chops with the apple slices, sprinkled with pecans and candied ginger.
