Prepare the pork chops by patting them dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

Prepare the onions by peeling and slicing them. Prepare the apples by peeling, coring, and slicing them.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the seasoned pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.

Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the apple and onion mixture. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and tender.
