Apple-Stuffed Pork Chops

I forgot to take a picture of this simple and delicious dinner, but this is kinda what it looked like:


We served this with asparagus and mashed potatoes: quick and hearty! Thanks to Matt for the recipe!

Ingredients:

4-6 thick-cut pork chops, sliced in half (I didn't cut through so that I would have a pocket)
1 small onion, diced
1 medium apple, peel and diced
2 cloves of garlic
Salt and Pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Saute the garlic in oil until fragrant, about 30 seconds.  Add in the onion and apple and saute until tender, about 5-6 minutes.  Remove from heat and let cool.  

Season the pork chops with salt and pepper.  Fill the chops with the onion-apple mixture (I used a spoon, which worked great).  Sear the chops, about 2 minutes per side.  Transfer the pan to the preheated oven, and let cook for about 10 minutes, or until the pork is no longer pink.
