Ingredients:

Serving

4 bone-in, 1-inch-thick pork chops (9 to 11 oz each)
2 large pinch kosher salt , plus more as needed
2 tbsp canola oil
2 large dill pickle spears
about 6 sprig flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup apple cider
2 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp dijon-style mustard
1 tbsp capers
6 tbsp no-salt-added chicken broth

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Heat two medium (9-inch) ovenproof skillets over medium-high heat. Use paper towels to pat the pork chops dry. Season the chops on both sides with a generous pinch or two of salt.
Add a tablespoon of oil to each skillet and swirl to coat the bottoms, then carefully add 2 chops to each skillet, laying them so they land away from you (to redirect the splatter). Cook for 3 minutes, until nicely seared and golden brown on the bottom, then transfer to the oven and cook for about 10 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the side of each chop registers 145 to 150 degrees. Transfer the chops to a plate and cover loosely to keep warm.
While the chops are in the oven, cut the dill pickle spears on the diagonal into 1-inch chunks. Finely chop the parsley to yield 2 tablespoons.
Place one now-empty skillet over medium heat. Carefully add the apple cider to deglaze (it will steam up) and use a wooden spatula to dislodge any browned bits from the skillet, then add the butter and stir until it has melted. Whisk in the mustard and cook for 1 minute, then add the capers and broth. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring once or twice, then add the pickles and cook undisturbed for 1 minute; the sauce should thicken slightly. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley.
Divide the chops among individual plates. Spoon equal amounts of sauce over and/or around each chop. Serve hot.
