Spiced Pork Chops with Apple Chutney
I found this Cooking Light recipe recently and couldn’t wait to make it. I love fruit with pork and knew this recipe would be tasty and healthy. I adapted the recipe by cooking the chutney for much longer than the recipe called for and seasoned the pork with regular chile powder instead of chipotle chile powder. I loved the flavor of the sweet apples with the tender and juicy pork. This was easy to make, had little clean-up, and was loved by my family and our friends that were over for dinner.
How to Make Spiced Pork Chops with Apple Chutney:
Ingredients:
- 1 tbsp butter
- 3 apples, peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 3 tbsp cider vinegar
- 2 tsp fresh ginger, peeled and minced
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp dry mustard
- 1/8 tsp ground allspice
Melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add apple and sauté for 6 minutes or until lightly browned. Add cranberries and the remaining ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 10-12 minutes or until apples are tender; stir occasionally.
- 3-4 boneless thick cut pork loin chops
- Chile powder, to taste
- Garlic powder, to taste
- Ground coriander, to taste
- Sea salt and freshly cracked, to taste
While the chutney simmers, season the pork chops on both sides with the seasonings, to taste. Heat a grill pan that is coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add pork to the hot pan and cook for 4 minutes on each side or until done. Let the meat rest for 5 minutes before serving with chutney. Enjoy.
