Pat pork chops dry and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 3
Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until shimmering, then sear pork 3 minutes per side without moving until golden brown.

Push pork to the side, add onion and apple slices to the skillet, then toss everything together for 4 minutes until apples soften.
Step 5
Add 1/4 cup water to the pan, scrape up any browned bits, and simmer for 2 minutes until the liquid coats the pork and apples.
