Servings: persons

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound boneless pork chops 3- 4 chops, depending on thickness
2 tablespoons rub spice, any brand or your own
1 teaspoon butter
1 apple large, about 1.5- 2 cups chopped . I used a Golden Delicious but any vari
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 pinch cloves
salt
pepper

1
Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium high heat.
2
Rub the spice mixture into the pork chops.
3
When the pan is very hot, oil should be shimmering, place the chops in the pan and don't move them.
4
Let them caramelize on the first side for about 5 minutes then flip and sear the other side.
5
Turn the heat down to medium low, cover the chops loosely with tinfoil and cook for another 10-15 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Cook until the pork chops reach about 140F or until light pink in the center.
6
While the chops are cooking, peel, core and dice the apples.
7
Heat the butter in a small saute pan over medium heat.
8
When the butter has melted, add the apples, stirring to coat.
9
Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
10
Pour in about 2 tbsp of water; saute until the apples begin to break down and the water thickens into a sauce, about 8-10 minutes, depending on the crispness of the apple.
11
The chutney will be slightly sweet but not as sweet as a dessert.
