I haven't tried this yet. But it caught my eye because I often find forequarter chops on special and could use some new ideas on cooking them. It comes from my Sunbeam Slow Cooker Recipe Booklet. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 kg forequarter pork chops, trimmed of fat |
3 medium red onions, cut into thick wedges |
4 medium green apples, cored and cut into quarters |
1 cup chicken stock |
250 g seedless prunes |
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh sage |
salt |
fresh ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat 1 Tablespoon of oil in a large fry pan over medium heat, cook chops for 1 minute each side or until lightly brown. Transfer to a plate.
2. Heat remaining oil in fry pan, add onions and cook 2-3 minutes or until they have softened. Add apples and toss in pan, stirring frequently, until apple begins to color. Place in bottom of slow cooker. Add stock, prunes and 1 Tb of fresh sage.
3. Cover and cook on high 3-4 hours or low 6-8 hours
4. Season to taste, serve with a sprinkle of fresh sage.
