We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Place the flour into a pie pan or deep dish; set aside. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper to your liking. Place them into the flour and dust to remove excess flour.

  • Step 2: Place a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Add the oil until hot; place the pork chop in the pan and cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until lightly browned , cooked evenly (better to cook a chop at a time, to get good browning, overcrowding prevents a good sear), and doneness is to your liking.

  • Step 3: Remove chops from the pan and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate. Using the same pan, add onions and continue to stir over medium heat until translucent and soft, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and serranos, and cook and stir occasionally for an additional 2 minutes. Add the apples, coriander, chili powder, cumin, apple juice, cane syrup, vinegar and cilantro. Reduce the sauce over medium-low heat until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Taste sauce, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

  • Step 4: Place pork chops on individual plates or a platter. Spoon sauce over chops and serve right away.
