Apple And Onion Smothered Pork Chops With Garam Masala
- 3 bone-in thick cut pork loin chops
- 1 1/2 teaspoons garam masala
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup thinly sliced yellow onion
- 1 cup fresh firm tart apple, peeled and thinly sliced (Jonathan, Cortland, or Granny Smith)
- 1 teaspoon crushed dried juniper berries
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup marsala wine (or apple cider, apple brandy, or dry sherry)
- freshly ground salt and black pepper, to taste
- Rub garam masala evenly on both sides of each pork chop and allow to sit about fifteen minutes at room temperature.
- Heat olive oil in a heavy bottomed cast iron skillet over medium heat.
- When it is quite hot, add the pork chops.
- Allow them to sit undisturbed until browned on the bottom, then turn over.
- When brown on the second side (you will know this because the chops will no longer stick to the pan-they will move freely), add onions and apples to the pan, along with crushed juniper berries.
- Sprinkle apples and onions with salt.
- Cook, stirring now and then, until the onions and apples are golden brown.
- Deglaze the pan with wine, stirring. Allow the alcohol to boil off, then turn heat down to low, and cover the pan.
- Cook until sauce reduces to a reddish brown glaze, and the apples and onions cling to the chops.
