2 tart green apples, such as Granny Smith (3/4 pound), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons raisins, or dried currants
1 tablespoon cider vinegar, or white-wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch of cayenne pepper
4 pork loin chops, each about 1/2 inch thick (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Salt and pepper

Steps:

Make the relish: In a medium saucepan, combine the apples, sugar, raisins, vinegar, ginger, and cayenne over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat; simmer, partially covered, until apples are soft, 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Make the pork chops: Season chops with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops, and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve with apple-raisin relish.
