Apple Cider Pork Chops

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min. YIELD: 6 servings.
These apple cider pork chops are a must for fall family dinners. I serve them with buttered egg noodles to soak up more of that delicious sauce. The recipe is easy to double when company pops in. —Debiana Casterline, Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey
