Pork Chops with Cider and Onion

Makes: 4  servings
Serving size: 1  serving without fettuccine Prep 10 mins Cook 27 mins Stand 2 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon  plus 2 teaspoons butter or margarine, divided
  • 1 3/4pound  medium Spanish onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon  salt, divided
  • 1/2 cup  chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup  cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon  firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon  whole-grain mustard
  • 4 rib pork chops, about 1 inch thick (2-1/2 lbs.)
  • 1/4 teaspoon  freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon  olive oil
  • Fettuccine (optional)

Directions

1. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for an electric stovetop (medium heat for gas). Add onion; cover and cook 10 to 12 minutes, until golden, stirring once. Sprinkle onion with 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook 3 to 4 minutes more, until caramelized. Add broth, vinegar, brown sugar and mustard; bring to boil. Reduce heat slightly and cook 3 minutes. Transfer to bowl; wipe out skillet with paper towels.

2. Sprinkle chops with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Heat oil in same skillet 1 to 2 minutes over medium-high heat. Add pork and brown 1 minute per side. Cover and cook 5 minutes, then turn chops and cook 5 to 6 minutes more, until an instant-read thermometer inserted 1-1/2 inches deep into side of each chop registers 160 degree F. Spoon onion sauce over pork; cover and cook 1 minute. Dot onion with remaining 2 teaspoons butter. Remove skillet from heat; cover and let stand 2 minutes. Transfer chops to a serving platter. Serve with fettuccine, if desired. Makes 4 servings.
