Ingredients:  
5 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
3 oz. thinly sliced pancetta coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon butter
3 large golden delicious apples, peeled, cored cut into 1/2 inch slices
1/2 tsp. sugar
four 8 oz. bone in center cut pork chops

Directions:
Directions:
In a large nonstick skillet, heat two teaspoons of the oil over medium high heat. Add the Pancetta and cook until crisp and light golden, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon remove the Pancetta and drain on paper towels. Melt the butter
in the same skillet. Add the apples and sprinkle with the sugar and cook until tender and deep golden brown, stirring frequently about 5 minutes.

Transfer the apples and any juices from skillet to a small bowl. Sprinkle the pork chops with season salt and pepper; add the pork chops and 2 tsp. of the oil into the same skillet and brown for 2 minutes per side. Transfer the chops to a plate and cover to keep warm.

Add the remaining tsp. of oil, cream, brandy, apple juice, thyme and onions to the same skillet and bring to a simmer. Return the apples and pork chops back into the pan and simmer until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Season the sauce with the remaining salt and pepper.
