Pork Chops with Apples and Raisin Sauce
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 4 (6 ounce) pork chops, 1 1/2 to 2-inches thick
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon sage
  • 2 medium tart apples, cored and sliced
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1/2 cup raisins
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a hot temperature, specifically 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius. Next, sprinkle some salt and dried sage leaves over the pork chops to add flavor.
2
Heat a generous amount of oil in a large, deep frying pan over a medium-high heat setting. Sear the pork chops on each side until they develop a nice brown color, approximately 3 minutes per side. Move the chops to a baking dish and reserve any remaining oil in the pan.
3
Take some of that reserved oil and stir it with a bit of flour until you get a smooth mixture. Whisk in some water and apple cider vinegar, then bring the liquid to a boil over medium-high heat while constantly stirring. Continue cooking until it thickens, then add some dried raisins and pour the mixture over the pork chops.
4
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil or a lid to help retain moisture. Place it in your preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, but remove the foil during the last 20 minutes of cooking to allow everything to brown nicely.
