How To Make pork chops braised with wine, prunes and apricots
-
Step 1Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour, shaking off excess. Heat oil in a large dutch oven over medium high heat. Add half of the pork chops; cook until brown - approx. 3 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining pork chops.

Step 2Drain all but 2 tbsp. oil and add sliced onions. Saute until light brown, about 5 minutes
-
Step 3Place chops over onions - add broth and wine. Bring to a simmer - then reduce heat to medium low and cover. Simmer about 15. Add fruit; cover and simmer until pork is very tender, about 45 minutes.
-
Step 4Using a slotted spoon, arrange onions and fruit around pork chops. Tent with foil to keep warm.
-
Step 5Boil cooking liquid until thickened slightly, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over pork and top with chopped fresh parsley.
