• Applesauce:
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 3 apples, peeled, cored, and coarsely chopped (about 4 cups chopped)
• 1/2 cup water
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• Pork:
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 4 (5-ounce) bone-in center-cut pork chops
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons canola oil

1. To prepare applesauce, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add apples to pan; cook 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Add 1/2 cup water, sugar, juice, and 1/8 teaspoon salt to pan; cook 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook 25 minutes or until apples are tender. Mash gently with the back of a spoon.
2. To prepare pork, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place flour in a shallow dish. Sprinkle pork evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper; dredge pork in flour. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add pork to pan; cook 5 minutes or until golden. Turn pork over; cook 3 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Serve with applesauce.
