One Pot Pork Shoulder Steaks with Caramelised Apple and Red Onion

Perfectly seared pork steaks topped with summery and flavourful caramelised apple onion sauce that has been beautifully sautéed, it is simple an elegant dish filled with flavour and joy.

This recipe would work fine for pork chop too but I would always go for pork shoulder steak because it tends to have more fat and connective tissue. Again, it is down to personal preference😉

Serve 4

Ingredients you will need

4 boneless pork should steaks

2 medium size apples, peeled and sliced

2 red onions, peeled and sliced

150ml water

10g butter

Marinade for pork steaks

4-5 sprigs thyme

2-3 sprigs rosemary

1/2 tsp fennel seeds

2 tsp salt

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tbsp clear honey

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Instruction

1. Marinade the pork steaks and set aside for 15 mins.

2. Heat the butter in a large non-stick frying pan over high heat.

3. Add pork steaks along with all the herb sprigs to the pan and pan sear each side for 2-3 mins until nicely browned, transfer to plate.

4. Pour in the apple and red onion slices to the same pan and sauté for 5 mins on medium-high heat.

5. Add the water and pork steaks to the pan, stir well and make sure all the caramelised brown bits melted into the sauce.

6. Turn to medium heat, sauté for 8-10 mins or until the sauce is reduced and the pork steaks are fully cooked.*

7. Garnish with even more herbs (optional) and serve hot.

*Note: You can thicken the sauce by mixing 2 tsp cornflour with 2 tsp water and stir that into the pan at the last 2-3 mins of cooking. This is totally optional.
