While the end result of this recipe tasted good, I had real problems with the cooking method. I ended up with a pan, covered with a layer of caramelized cheese and chops with no cheese on them whatsoever. I don't know if a non-stick skillet would make a difference here but I suppose it's worth a try (I used a stainless steel skillet). The apricot sauce is what saved this recipe for me, though I'm glad I only made 2 chops. I also cut the amounts for the sauce by a quarter (rather than by half) and it was plenty of sauce for my taste. Thanks!
