Hearty, rich, sweet and sour, apples bring a fruity and juicy flavor that perfectly offsets the neat&#8217;s richness. In our pork chops with apples and onions recipe we sear the pork chops first to help them develop a caramelized, crispy crust, then we simmer them along with the apples, onions and a splash of balsamic vinegar.

For best results, sear the pork chops in a hot pan then transfer them to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/our-favorite-casserole-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/our-favorite-casserole-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">casserole dish<\/a>. Layer in the apples and onions and bake until the onions are soft and the pork registers an internal temperature of 145\u00b0.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Add some spice: <\/strong>This is a sweet and savory dish, but it doesn&#8217;t have a ton of heat. If you like your dishes spicy, try adding some hot peppers to this one. Peppers such as jalape\u00f1o, poblanos or red Thai chiles would be a great addition here. Simply slice them and add to the pan in step two, then proceed with the recipe as outlined.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to Store\u00a0Pork Chops with Apples and Onions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you have any pork chops with onions and apples left over, you can absolutely store it in the refrigerator. Let the leftovers cool down to room temperature, then transfer them to an airtight container with a tight-fitting lid. Store in the refrigerator for about three to five days and reheat as needed.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do you reheat pork chops with apples and onions?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Leftover pork chops are best when reheated in the oven. To do so, transfer any leftovers to an oven-safe casserole dish and place in an oven that&#8217;s been preheated to 220\u00b0. Let the pork chops heat in the oven until completely warmed through, about 15 to 20 minutes depending on how much you have left over.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Pork Chops with Apples and Onions Tips<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2052181\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Skillet-Pork-Chops-With-Apples-and-Onion_TOHD24_166353_DianaRattray_5.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"A platter of boneless pork chops cooked with apples and onions, from Taste Recipes.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Diana Rattray for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Can I use pork tenderloin instead?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Yes.

Pork tenderloin is a boneless cut of meat that&#8217;s super easy to cook, and it can be prepared in a pan, on the grill or in an oven. It&#8217;s a great substitute for pork chops and can easily be used in place of them.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I make this recipe with chicken breasts?<\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;re hosting guests that don&#8217;t eat pork, you can make this same recipe with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/ways-to-cook-boneless-skinless-chicken-breasts\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/ways-to-cook-boneless-skinless-chicken-breasts\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">chicken breast<\/a> instead. In fact, you don&#8217;t have to change the recipe much at all\u2014simply swap out chicken breasts for the pork and proceed with the recipe as outlined. Be aware that cook times may vary, and chicken must be cooked until an internal thermometer registers at least 165\u00b0.<\/p>\n<h3>What can I serve this dish with?<\/h3>\n<p>This hearty entree is fantastic when served with mashed potatoes, egg noodles or a hunk of crusty bread. The juices from the apples, pork and onions yield a savory sauce, so serving it with something starchy that can soak up the juices is a great way to enhance the dish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pork chops with apples and onions is a timeless pairing;
