Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • 1 ½ teaspoons rubbed sage

  • 1 teaspoon dried minced garlic

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground allspice

  • ½ teaspoon ground paprika

  • 4 (5 ounce) boneless pork chops, about 1-inch thick

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 medium sweet onion, thinly sliced

  • 2 medium Red Delicious apples, cored and thinly sliced

  • ½ cup apple juice

  • 1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar

Directions

  1. Whisk flour, sage, garlic, thyme, salt, allspice, and paprika together in a small bowl. Reserve 2/3 spice mixture; sprinkle remaining 1/3 on pork chops, coating all sides.

  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chops; cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Add onion to skillet; cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Add apples; cook and stir 2 minutes more. Stir in apple juice, brown sugar, and reserved spice mixture; bring to a boil.

  4. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer until chops no longer pink in center and reaches desired level of doneness, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
