A little vinegar ensures the red cabbage keeps its brilliant color. Who knew?

Ingredients

Olive oil

4 tsp

Uncooked onion(s)

1 medium, red variety, thinly sliced

Caraway seeds

1 tsp, (optional)

Fresh apple(s)

2 medium, Braeburn or Red Delicious variety

Uncooked red cabbage

1¼ pound(s), (about 1/2 cabbage), thinly sliced

Dried cranberries

¼ cup(s)

Unsweetened apple juice

1½ fl oz, (3 tbsp)

Cider vinegar

⅔ Tbsp, or red vinegar, (2 tsp)

Kosher salt

2 tsp

Black pepper

½ tsp

Uncooked lean boneless pork chop(s)

30 oz, center cut, 6 (5-ounce) chops, trimmed

Instructions

  1. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and caraway seeds and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 8 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, halve, core, and cut 1 apple into 1-inch chunks. Peel, halve, and core remaining apple and coarsely grate. Combine cabbage and both apples in 5- or 6-quart slow cooker.
  3. Stir onion mixture, cranberries, apple juice, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper into cabbage mixture. Cover and cook until cabbage is tender, about 4 hours on Low, stirring after 2 hours of cooking time.

Add chops to skillet and cook, turning once, until instant-read thermometer inserted into side of chop registers 145°F, about 4 minutes per side. Serve with cabbage.
