Ingredients

  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup omit for whole30
  • 1 tsp mustard omit for AIP
  • 1 tsp sage
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • ¾ tsp salt divided
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 bone in pork chops about 1.5-2lbs
  • 2 honey crisp apple thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

  • Combine the broth, coconut aminos, maple syrup, mustard, sage, thyme, and half of the salt. Whisk well and set aside.
  • Using a large skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium heat. Salt the pork chops well on both sides. Cook for 4-5 minutes on both sides to get a nice sear on the pork chops. The internal temperature should read 145 F. Set aside.
  • Add the apples, onions and garlic to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes to soften.
  • Stir in the sauce mixture and bring to a low simmer. Add the pork chops back to the pan and baste in the sauce. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes to reheat the pork chops and reduce the sauce.
  • Serve topped with additional thyme to taste.
