Eons ago Martha whipped this up on one of her TV programs. The first time I made it, I knew I was in love. Make a marvelous presentation by placing the chops, apples and cabbage together on your largest and most beautiful serving platter. Ingredients:
4 pork loin chops, 3/4 inch thick |
4 sprigs fresh thyme |
1 orange |
2 ounces cognac |
3 firm apples, peeled, thick sliced wedges |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1/2 head cabbage, shredded |
2 garlic cloves, sliced |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/2 teaspoon caraway seed |
salt |
pepper |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle pork chops with pepper.
2. Press thyme leaves on one side; brown in 1 tablespoon oil.
3. When almost browned on one side, squeeze 1/2 orange over chops.
4. Turn chops once and sprinkle with salt.
5. Squeeze other 1/2 orange over all.
6. Cook 5 minutes.
7. Add 2 oz. cognac; cover and cook 5 to 10 minutes.
8. Place chops on warm platter.
9. Add the peeled and sliced apples, salt, pepper and 2 tsp sugar.
10. Saute just until heated through.
11. In another pan, melt 2 tbs butter then add sliced garlic cloves and 1/2 tsp caraway seeds; stir.
