I make this hearty dish often for guests. I think the sauerkraut tastes very much like what we enjoyed in Munich restaurants when we visited Germany. Ingredients:
3 cups sauerkraut, well drained |
2 cups applesauce |
1/2 cup chicken broth |
1/2 pound sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
6 pork chops (1 inch thick and 7 ounces each) |
2 tablespoons canola oil |
1/4 teaspoon paprika |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the sauerkraut, applesauce, broth, bacon, brown sugar and seasonings; spoon into an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
2. In a large skillet, brown pork chops in oil; drain. Place chops over the sauerkraut mixture. Sprinkle with paprika. Cover and bake at 350° for 1 to 1-1/4 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Yield: 6 servings.
