You can use cider for more than just drinking. Adapted from Good Food Magazine, October 1987. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
4 pork chops, fat trimmed (3/4-1-inch thick) |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/4 cup minced shallot |
1 cup apple cider |
1 tablespoon applejack or 1 tablespoon apple brandy |
2 teaspoons cider vinegar |
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leave |
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard |
salt & freshly ground black pepper (to taste) |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and cook, turning once, until cooked through, about 6 minutes each side. Remove chops to serving platter and keep warm.
2. Add garlic and shallots to skillet and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Pour in cider and applejack; cook over high heat until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar, thyme, Dijon mustard and salt and pepper; stir until completely blended. Spoon sauce over pork chops and serve at once.
