Sweet & Savory Apple Butter Pork Chops

Recipe by Our Best Bites. (I increased the recipe to serve six, but this is the original)
4 boneless pork chops (either buy chops or get a sirloin and cut your own)
¼ c. all-purpose flour
½ tsp. kosher salt
½ tsp. black pepper
½ tsp. garlic powder
1 c. high-quality apple cider (cloudy rather than clear)
¼ c. apple butter
1 tbsp. water
1 ½ tbsp Creole or coarsely ground mustard
1 tsp. pressed garlic
1 onion (sliced thin and caramelized)

Combine the flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder together in a small bowl. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium high heat. Dredge the pork chops in the flour mixture and then brown the pork chops for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they’re brown and crispy. While the pork chops are browning, combine the apple cider, apple butter, water, garlic, and mustard. Add the cider mixture to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes or until the sauce begins to evaporate and thicken. Transfer the pork chops and sauce to a 9×13″ disposable aluminum pan. Evenly distribute the caramelized onions over the pork chops. Cover the pan tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil and freeze. When ready to cook, preheat oven to 350. Bake, covered, for 1 hour or until the pork chops are tender. Serve with rice and a green salad or veggies.
