Pork Chops With Fried Apples

bullwinkle's Note:

This recipe is from a cookbook called The Southern Heritage All Pork Cookbook. Preparation time not included. I need to add a correction to the recipe. I don't use as much oil as stated in the recipe to fry the pork chops and since I never measure how much I use I just listed the amount of oil as it was given in the original recipe.

This is the first time I've ever made pork chops, and they were the best chops I've ever had. I decided to not make the gravy, just to save on calories, and I also sauteed some vidalia sweet onions along with the apples. So I tweaked it a little, but boy oh boy was it delicious. Thanks!

I really loved the apples! The pork chops were perfect. I skipped the gravy and did not put any on mine. Excellent flavors!!!

Not a bad recipe at all.Next time i make it i will use cream for the gravy and not milk.The gravey needs to be a thinner darker gravy.The Fried apples were EXCELLENT added touch.I bet it would be just as good without the gravey just apples adn may be some mint jelly.
