Sweet and tart apple relish garnishes the sauteed boneless pork chop in this quick recipe. Sweet potatoes, gently steamed, complete this fall harvest meal.
Apples should be kept in the refrigerator and, if washed, dried thoroughly before being placed in the refrigerator. This recipe calls for a Gala apple. It's a sweet, moderately crisp, juicy apple that holds its shape well and adds just the right amount of sweetness to the relish. If you can't find gala apples, use another type of your choice.
