"As a kid, my best friend's mom used to make pork chops with apple sauce as a side dish, and I would dip my pork chops in the apple sauce - I've never looked back on believing in that flavor pairing. Apples and pork chops belong together, and they are one of those fall recipes we should all be making."
"Instead of fussing over getting caramel to stick to your apple for dessert, try embracing the dynamic duo of ingredients at dinnertime. Caramel is surprisingly simple to make - brown sugar, butter, and cream are all you need (and salt if you're after a salted caramel sauce) - and it delivers in both the taste and texture departments, infusing the pork chops with warm, buttery sweetness that melts in your mouth."
"To make the most of your caramel apple pork chops, add chopped pecans in as a finisher - giving nuttiness that elevates the caramel and adding a touch of crunchy texture. To keep the dish from being too indulgent (and to tame the caramel a bit), you can make your caramel by melting butter and adding brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the mix, omitting the cream that's typically used to make a caramel sauce that you'd put on a sundae."
Caramel apple pork chops pair seared or baked pork chops with cooked apples and a caramel sauce for a sweet-and-savory fall entrée. Make caramel from brown sugar, butter, and cream, adding salt for a salted version. To reduce richness, omit cream and melt butter with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg, then simmer apples until tender. Finish with chopped pecans for nuttiness and crunchy texture. Use canned caramel apple pie filling as a convenient shortcut, and serve the chops with maple-roasted butternut or other autumn sides.
