Pork with Braised Cabbage

INGREDIENTS
2    tablespoons butter
4    pork loin chops
1    large onion, quartered, sliced
6    cups thinly sliced red or green cabbage (or a mix)
1    tart apple, peeled and grated
1    tablespoon brown sugar
4    tablespoons white wine vinegar

METHOD
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and brown the pork chops on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Set aside. Add the onions and cook for 5 to 6 minutes until tender. Add the cabbage and cook, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the apple, sugar and vinegar. Place the four chops on top of the cabbage-apple mixture, cover and simmer for 10 minutes..

Remove the pork chops, stir the cabbage and onions, turn and replace the pork chops. Cover and cook for another 8 to 10 minutes, checking on the level of crispness several times as the cabbage cooks. When it has reached the level of crispness you desire, remove from the heat and serve. You may want to pass the white wine vinegar for those who want a little more.
