Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400F
• Place the potatoes on a baking sheet
• Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of EVOO and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes
• In the last 15 minutes of cooking time, add the green beans to the baking sheet with the potatoes
• While the potatoes are roasting, combine the apples, brown sugar and apple juice in a medium-size pot over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until a chunky sauce forms, about 10-12 minutes
• If the sauce begins to spatter as it bubbles, reduce the heat
• Once a sauce forms, remove the pot from the heat
• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of EVOO
• In a shallow dish, combine the orange juice and zest, and the soy sauce
• Add some salt and freshly ground black pepper
• Dip the chops into the mixture and place in the hot pan
• Brown and caramelize the chops for 4 minutes on each side, until the juices run clear
• Remove the chops from the heat and let them rest a couple minutes for the juices to redistribute
• Remove the potatoes and beans from the oven and garnish everything with parsley
• Serve the pork chops with the applesauce, roasted potatoes and green beans alongside

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH CHERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Pat the chops dry, and rub them all over with a mixture of the rosemary, salt, pepper and garlic. Cover, and marinate for up to 2 hours at room temperature, or overnight in the refrigerator. Bring the chops back to room temperature before grilling.
• Heat one side of a charcoal or gas grill, and put the rack about 4 inches from the heat source. Cook the chops over the hottest part of the fi re until well seared on both sides, about 3 or 4 minutes per side. Move them to the cool part of the grill, cover and cook until done, anywhere from 1 to 10 minutes, depending on the heat of the fi re and the thickness of the chops. The pork is done when it's just fi rm to the touch, its juices run just slightly pink and the meat is rosy in the center, or when an instant-read thermometer registers 135 degrees in the thickest part of the chop (the temperature will continue to rise as the chops rest). Transfer them to a platter, cover loosely with aluminum foil and let them rest while you make the sauce.
• Put 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the foam subsides, add the shallots, and cook until soft, 2 or 3 minutes. Add the cherries, wine and whatever juices have accumulated around the pork chops; cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces into a thin syrup, 5 or 6 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, a little at a time, until it's incorporated into the sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the chops, and serve.

APPLESAUCE PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and apple slices in the melted butter until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer onion and apple to a bowl.
• Place pork chops in the same skillet; cook over medium heat until pork chops are browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.
• Mix applesauce, brown sugar, mustard, and cinnamon into onion and apple mixture.
• Place pork chops in a 9x9-inch baking dish; season with salt and black pepper. Spoon applesauce mixture over pork chops; cover dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pork chops are no longer pink in the center, about 30 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

OVEN-ROASTED TOMAHAWK PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel and coat on all sides with dry rub. Rest for 30 minutes.
• Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and pre heat to 400°F (204°C).
• Heat a large oven-safe skillet over high heat. Sear the meat on one side, about 3 minutes. Then flip the chop over and put the skillet in the oven.
• Bake the pork chops for about 6-10 minutes. It's best to have a probe thermometer inserted into the meat (not touching the bone). When the temperature reaches 135 degrees F, remove the chops.
• Add a pat of butter on top of the meat and rest it for 10 minutes.

PORK CHOPS AND APPLESAUCE

Steps:

• Marinate pork chops:
• Stir together milk and 2 teaspoons salt in a shallow 3-quart dish, then add pork chops. Marinate, covered and chilled, turning over once, at least 1 hour.

Discard bay leaf and mash apples with a fork. Keep applesauce warm, covered.
• Fry pork chops:
• Preheat oven to 200°F.
• Stir together bread crumbs, garlic, rosemary, thyme, and remaining teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl.

BRADY BUNCH PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• In a large shallow dish, like a 9x13 pan, stir together milk and first amount of salt.
• Add pork chops (you could use bone-in chops, if you wish) and marinate (if you want to call it that; it's more of a milk brine methinks), covered and in fridge, for at least one hour (maximum 4 hours).
• Turn chops once, halfway through marinating/brining time.
• When ready to cook chops, preheat oven to 200F and have ready an ovenproof platter.
• In a shallow dish (like a pie plate), combine freshly made bread crumbs (grind bread in food processor to make crumbs; you'll need about 8 slices) with garlic powder, rosemary, thyme and remaining amount of salt.
• Remove chops from milk and let excess milk drip off, then dredge chops in bread crumbs, lightly patting crumbs onto both sides of chops so they adhere.
• Place breaded pork chops on a tray, keeping chops in one layer.
• In a large 12-inch skillet over high heat, place butter and oil.
• Saute chops, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes per side only.

• Place cooked chops on platter and keep warm in preheated oven.
• Cook remaining chops (you may have to do 3 batches, depending on the size of your pan and how many chops you do); add more oil and butter to pan if necessary (it likely will be).
• I recommend serving with applesauce.

APPLESAUCE BAKED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Toss the onions, sweet potatoes and potatoes together on the pan lined with parchment paper. Drizzle the oil over the potato and onion mixture and sprinkle evenly with the one teaspoon of salt, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper. Toss gently to coat. Roast the potatoes in the oven for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the applesauce, steak sauce, honey, mustard and remaining teaspoon of salt together. Pour evenly over the pork chops being sure to coat both sides.
• Remove the potatoes and onions from the oven. Gently push them to the edges of the pan so there is enough room in the center of the pan for the pork chops.
• Place the pork chops in the center of the pan, topping each chop with more of the applesauce mixture.
• Place the pan back in the oven and bake the chops for 10 minutes.
• Increase the temperature to 500 degrees, rotate the pan and bake for 5 minutes more.
• Remove the pan from the oven and check the temperature of each pork chop with an instant read digital thermometer. Continue to bake a few more minutes (if necessary) until the internal temperature of each chop reaches 145 degrees F. Do not over cook!
• Allow the chops to rest for five minutes before serving.

BRAMLEY APPLE SAUCE

Steps:

• Tip all of the ingredients into a pan. Cover with a lid. Cook over low heat for about 15 minutes, or until the apples are very soft and have broken down. Beat with a fork. Serve immediately or tip into a bowl, cover and chill until needed.
• Preheat the oven to 200*C/400*F/ gas mark 6. Cut the fatty edge of the chop (s) with some kitchen scissors at 1/3 inch intervals and place it/them onto a baking sheet with a raised edge, which you have lined with foil and buttered. the size of baking sheet depeds on how many chops you are cooking. Obviously if you are only cooking one or two you will want a smaller baking tray.
• Dust the top surface of each chop with some salt, pepper, sage (rubbed between your fingertips) and onion granules to taste. Then sprinkle a tablespoon of bread crumbs evenly over top of each one. Dot with butter. Pour apple juice into the baking tray evenly around the chops, trying not to disturb the crumbs on top.
• Place the tray into the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, checking to make sure the apple juice does not boil dry in the pan. Once the crumbs have begun to brown on top, remove the pan from the oven.
• Carefully turn each chop over without disturbing the crumb topping and repeat the process for seasoning and crumbing on the underside. If you need more juice in the pan, once again pour it around the chops.
• Return the pan to the oven and cook for another 15 to 20 minutes, until nicely browned on top and the juices have thickened into a bit of a sauce. Check every 5 to 6 minutes or so to make sure the pan is not going dry and top up with more juice if need be. Serve hot with some of the pan juices spooned over top. Fabulous!
