2 Pork Chops (butterflied)
2 Apples (peeled diced into fairly small chunks)
1/8 Cup(ish) Brown Sugar
1 1/2 Tablespoons(ish) Cinnamon
1/8 Teaspoon(ish) Cayenne Pepper - (gotta trust me here)
2 Tablespoons Water
The "ish" is because I didn't "actually measure these, I just am guessing at the approximate amounts I used, just play with it to your taste.
To make the applesauce filling:
Add Water, Apples, Brown Sugar, Cinnamon, Cayenne Pepper to a small pot stir, then cover and simmer, stirring occasionally 20-25 min or until the apples are soft (almost "mushy)
In the meantime, butterfly two pork chops creating a "pocket" season all sides lightly with salt and pepper.
When apple sauce is done stuff "pocket" full of apple sauce (reserve a small amount for topping) and then broil or grill until desired "doneness" achieved. Plate add bit of sauce to topping and serve.
A fairly traditional combination, apples and pork chops, but I gambled by adding a bit of Cayenne pepper to the applesauce, I think it gives it a subtle little kick that really adds a lot of flavor to the dish by creating an interesting sweet and spicy combination that plays well with a juicy pork chop.

Sounds very very good...
Hmmm, no exact measuring...wonder where that comes from. You can no longer comment on my recipes(ish), you have officially crossed over.
