Step 1
Boil potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 12 minutes. Drain, then mash with 1 tbsp butter, salt, and pepper until creamy.
Step 2
While potatoes cook, pat pork chops dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Step 3
Heat 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high until foaming. Sear pork 2 minutes per side until edges brown. Transfer to a plate.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp butter, apple, and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until apples soften and onions caramelize, about 6 minutes.
Step 5
Stir in mustard and sage. Return pork to pan and coat with the apple-onion mixture. Warm 1 minute, tasting and adjusting seasoning.
Step 6
Divide mashed potatoes between plates. Top with pork and apple-onion sauce. Serve immediately.
