Ingredients

  • Boneless Pork Loin Chop 1 pack, about 2 chops $6.99
  • Organic Savoy Cabbage 1/2 head $1.99
  • Honeycrisp Apples 1 apple $3.29
  • Yellow Onion 1 small $1.49
  • Organic Garlic, 3 CT 1 clove $2.89
  • Organic Sage, 0.5 OZ 1 pack, use 1 teaspoon chopped $2.99

Instructions

  1. Prep 1 pack Boneless Pork Loin Chop ($6.99), about 2 chops, by patting dry and seasoning both sides with salt and pepper. Thinly slice 1 Honeycrisp apple ($3.29). Thinly slice 1 small Yellow Onion ($1.49). Thinly shred 1/2 head Organic Savoy Cabbage ($1.99). Mince 1 clove from Organic Garlic, 3 CT ($2.89). Chop 1 teaspoon sage from 1 pack Organic Sage ($2.99).
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a little oil. Sear the 2 Boneless Pork Loin Chops ($6.99) for 3 to 4 minutes per side until deeply browned and cooked through to 145°F. Transfer to a plate to rest.
  3. In the same skillet, add the sliced Yellow Onion ($1.49) and Honeycrisp apple ($3.29). Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized. Stir in the 1 teaspoon chopped sage ($2.99) and cook 30 seconds more.
  4. Add the shredded 1/2 head Organic Savoy Cabbage ($1.99) and the minced 1 clove Organic Garlic ($2.89). Season with salt and pepper and cook 4 to 6 minutes, tossing, until the cabbage is tender but still a little lively.
  5. Return the pork chops and any juices to the skillet for 1 minute to warm through and coat lightly with the apple-onion mixture.
  6. Serve the Boneless Pork Loin Chops ($6.99) over the sautéed savoy cabbage with the apple, onion, and sage spooned on top.

Cook time: 30 minutes

Estimated cost: $12-15

Health notes: About 500-600 calories per serving. Excellent protein, good fiber from cabbage and apple, and lower-carb than a potato-based plate. Use minimal added butter or oil to keep it lighter.

Drink pairing: Pinot Noir is a classic match for pork and apples, while dry Riesling works beautifully if you want something brighter with the sweet-savory pan sauce.
