Pork Chops with an Apple and Cherry Sauce

I'm not usually a big fan of pork, but this was amazing! 

Pork Chops with Apple Cherry Sauce

3 pork chops

1lb cherries, pitted and diced

1 tbsp dijon mustard (recipe below)

3tbsp Olive oil

White wine vinegar

3 tbsp dry white wine

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2c. Chicken stock

1 Apple, peeled and diced

2 cloves of garlic, diced

Dijon Mustard

1tbsp yellow mustard

splash of white wine vinegar

salt and pepper to taste

pinch of garlic

When I was checking out the ingredients I could have I noticed that dijon mustard, at least the kind I had in my pantry, had dairy or egg in it. At the moment I can't remember and it doesn't really matter. I thought, I think I can make this... and I was right! It really was a matter of figuring out the main ingredients on the bottle I had and mixing them together myself omitting what I couldn't have. There aren't exact measurements on anything because I totally just guessed and tasted as I added things. Yep, that's how I cook... watch out!

To make this meal first cook the pork. I learned that to fry something well you need to let your pan get hot, then add your oil, then let it get hot before you put whatever you're frying on it. Takes some time, but it's worth it! I browned my pork on both sides and put aside. 

I wish I had taken more pictures, but there was so much to do that, honestly, I just forgot until the end. Oops! 

I then added, to the same frying pan, all the other ingrediens and simmered until the cherries and apples became soft. Then I added the por back in and cooked until pork was done... I'm going to say it was about 7-10 minutes. I made this a few days ago and honestly can't remember. However, it's quick enough that you wouldn't leave the room so you can keep an eye on it. 

Doesn't that look so good! The cherries and apples seep into the rest of the liquid permeating their flavor throughout. 

I added some apple sause, who doesn't like some good pork chops and apple sause?!

After I took this picture I thought... hm, this should really have some greens with it. Oh well! Next time. Here's to an {almost} balanced meal. My sister-in-law said that she had something similar but with blueberries. I may have to try that!!
