I made this using chicken cutlets -- the other white meat -- sliced into paillards. I loved how a few simple condiments came together into a rich sauce that was sweet, sharp and aromatic all at once. This one is a keeper. Like Culinary Queen I warmed the sauce a bit before topping the poultry.

123 Hit Wonders 2008 ~ I used bone-in pork chops so they took a bit longer to cook. I also added the apple butter mix to the pan juices to warm it up a bit as I didn't want it to be cold. Added a nice flavor to the pork. Thanks for sharing!
