Apple Season

After a successful day of apple picking, I now have a large basket of apples. I’ve been searching the internet looking for new and interesting recipes. I’ve found recipes for everything from cider to apple pie. Here’s the one I’m trying out tonight.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 large boneless pork chops
3 tablespoons butter
2 sweet apples of your choice, peeled and chopped
1 1/2 cups crumbled gorgonzola cheese
Directions
Butterfly each pork chop by slicing horizontally through the center with a sharp knife. Leave them attached on one side so they can be flipped open to create a butterfly shape.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add pork chops, reduce heat to medium and cook slowly for 5 to 7 minutes each side, or until they are done to your liking. Set aside.
Melt butter or margarine in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add apples and saute until tender, then turn off heat and add cheese to skillet. Mix together slowly to form a creamy thick sauce.
Place reserved chops on serving plate and stuff each one with 1/4 of the apple/cheese mixture. Serve hot.
