Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 apple, chopped
- 1/2 head of red cabbage
- 1/2 cup dry wine or 1/2 cup water + 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 4 pork chops
- salt and pepper 
 
A colorful and tasty combination. Add a wedge of cornbread for a satisfying supper.
 
Directions
  • In a large skillet, heat butter and add apple and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally,
    about 5 minutes.
  • Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage. Remove core and cut cabbage
    into thin wedges (or, if preferred, in shreds). Add to skillet, pushing apple and onion to the
    side so that the cabbage is in contact with the pan as much as possible. Cook 5 - 10 minutes, until

some of the cabbage has browned.
  • Add wine (or water and vinegar), cover and simmer about 10
    minutes. (This will give cabbage that has a slight crunch; if you prefer really soft cabbage, cook
    longer at this point.) Add salt to taste.
  • Remove cooked cabbage to another container and wipe
    out the skillet. Add oil and heat, medium-high, until hot. While pan heats, pat chops dry, salt
    and pepper lightly. Add to skillet and brown, 1 to 2 minutes each side.
  • Spoon cabbage over
    chops. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until chops are done (no pink inside), about 10 minutes.
    Time will vary, depending on the thickness of the chops.
  • Serve hot, with cabbage on or along
    side the chops.
