This was good. I used bone-in chops, just cooked them in the oven a couple more minutes and they were done nicely. I also topped the chops with the onions and apples before I put it in the oven. I don't like things overly sweet and used a granny smith apple since it's what I had and they were the perfect sweetness for me.
