My friend Tricia (whose blog I can't reference because she doesn't have one - hint hint) told me to make these because they were amazing. And since I'm all about other people making dinner decisions for me, I believed her and made them. Not only were they amazing, but they accomplished the impossible: convincing my husband that he has a secret love of pork (and mustard)! I love when that happens.
So thank you, Tricia for the suggestion. And thank you Jen (domestic diva) for sharing the recipe in the first place. We loved them!

Serves two
Ingredients
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 small garlic clove, crushed
2 thin-cut boneless pork chops
1 small red apple, such as Gala or Red delicious; cored & diced (I used gala)
2 tsp balsamic or red-wine vinegar
1 tbsp bourbon
1 tbsp grainy mustard; such as Grey Poupon
Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
Combine the oil + garlic in a non-stick skillet over med-high heat. Place the chops in the center of the skillet. Toss the apple with the vinegar + bourbon, and then add the mixture to the skillet between the pork & the edges of the pan. Cook 6 minutes, turning the pork once and the apple pieces a few times.
When ready to serve, top the pork chops with the mustard. Season to taste with salt & pepper.
