Baked Pork Chops with Apples and Plums
Marinated in lemon juice baked pork chops recipe with apples, plums and onions. Served with homemade pesto. Perfect dinner idea for four! “All opinions are my own. I wasn’t compensated but I received a product for free.”
How I like fall and all the flavors of this season! Thinking about not using all available products right now at the store makes me sad. We’ve got such a huge selection of fall vegetables and fruits right now. Try to use plums, apples, pumpkins and squashes in your kitchen. Anyway, baked pork chops was a new recipe in my home. I don’t usually bake meat with fruits. But I was wrong on this. There are some fruits that are perfect for each meat. For example, these pork chops are great with plums, apples or even pears.
Lately I received Cookina Cooking Sheet
Furthermore, before baking my pork chops I marinated them overnight in the mixture of lemon juice, salt, pepper and oil. On the day of baking I just prepared all veggies and fruits. The whole dinner was very delicious.
To make it even more tasty I served these baked pork chops with my Basil Spinach Almond Pesto. Very unique combination of flavors. I see this type of dish as sophisticated and elegant dinner with family or friends.
