Master the art of a one-pan pork chop dinner with apple cider sauce
In short: This video demonstrates a streamlined method for preparing pork chops using a single pan. By incorporating bacon fat, fresh apples, and a classic French thickening technique, you can create a sophisticated, flavorful meal that minimizes cleanup while maximizing depth of flavor.
The process begins by rendering bacon in an oven-proof pan, using the leftover fat to sear the seasoned pork chops. After removing the meat, shallots and apples are sautéed until softened, typically taking three to five minutes. The pan is then deglazed with apple cider, sage, and Dijon mustard.
To achieve the perfect sauce consistency, a beurre manié—a mixture of equal parts flour and softened butter—is whisked in until smooth. The pork, apples, shallots, and bacon are returned to the pan and finished in the oven until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 140°F.
