Sassy Sweet and Savoury Pork Dinner

"I love thel ist for RSC 15 as it is usually on hand at home. So in honour of those ingredients here is a creation I hope you will enjoy as much as we did. The other white meat is healthy for you. Apples and a suprise with bread crumbs top off the taste to give you the sweet and savory petite explosion with each bite. Kids will love this yet it is company friendly. Looks very pretty on a plate for those dinners where you want to impress."

  • Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minute.

  1. Loved it. Apples and pork always go together. I used chopped apples and drizzled the apricot preserves on top. Panko bread crumbs are available in Bulk Food Stores in case you can't find them in the grocery store. Definitely another favorite for my recipe binder.
     
  2. Made this for just 2 of us, so I cut the recipe in half & had an extra chop that I sliced up for a couple of pork sandwiches the next day! A very, very tasty meat & fruit combo that we both enjoyed! I did chop the apples, but another time I'd enjoy making these for company & then, I'd go with the apple halves! [Made & reviewed in RSC #15 Contest]
     
  3. I would have rated this a 5 but we hated the soggy panko. I used pork steaks and gala apples. We loved the idea of half an apple each and the apricot preserves was a nice addition. I plan on making this often without the panko (it doesn't need it) because it really looked impressive on the plate and tasted great. Thanks for the nice recipe and good luck in the contest.

He is my best friend and the love of my life, my soulmate, and everyday he makes me smile!&nbsp; We have two wonderful children, both adults, and both the loves of our lives.&nbsp; We are so proud of them!<br /><br />I want to say <strong>THANK YOU</strong>&nbsp; <img title=Laughing src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-laughing.gif border=0 alt=Laughing />&nbsp; to all of you who try my recipes. I may not always get back with a Thank you in writing but I want you to know I do thank you very much. I appreciate any and all comments, it can only help me learn and become a better chef. <br /><br />I love to travel and see anything and everything. When summer comes, I am off to see. DH and I traveled across country several times and our children are seasoned travelers as well. Road Trip are 2 of my favorite words. The kids and I have done a few trips as well down the eastern seaboard and there are plans for more. Both DD and DS are gypsies as well and think nothing of taking a road trip to visit home or each other. LOVE IT <br /><br />I live in Western New York and love it here, snow and all. I am a special education teacher and enjoy my career. The sense of wonder and gratification comes daily. My favorite pastime is spending time with my family! I also love to read, listen to music and watch good movies. We have Friday night pizza night here, which means I do not cook! I love Friday's. I started this custom when my children were small and we would cuddle on the floor and play games together and eat pizza. (Highly recommended for all moms out there, dads too.) I LOVE THAT! <br /><br />My favorite cookbook has changed since I came to Zaar, it is now the Zaarworld cookbook. I can get everything I need here and then some, to cook up meals for family and friends. One passion of mine is to cook homestyle meals for family and friends, holiday dinners, and baking bread. <br />My pet peeve is rudeness. INTOLERABLE! <br /><br />Some of the Contests and Swaps I have participated in and thoroughly enjoyed! <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/final2_1.jpg
