Savory, fragrant, and deeply satisfying, these pork chops bring together golden-seared meat, tender caramelized apples, and a pan sauce that practically builds itself. The spice rub of turmeric and ginger gives the chops a warm, earthy depth before they even hit the pan, and the sear locks in all of that flavor with a gorgeous crust. Coconut oil, bone broth, apple cider vinegar, and honey do the heavy lifting in the sauce — every single ingredient is naturally free of thickeners and gums, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or swap anything out. The sauce thickens on its own as it reduces, proving you don't need any additives to get a glossy, spoonable result. Fresh rosemary and sliced garlic bloom in the pan drippings and carry through every bite, tying the sweet apple and savory pork together beautifully. Finishing the chops right in the sauce keeps them juicy and ensures nothing goes to waste — those browned bits scraped from the bottom are pure flavor. This is the kind of weeknight dinner that looks and tastes like you put in way more effort than you actually did.

Pat the pork chops completely dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the salt, turmeric, and ginger, then rub the mixture evenly over both sides of each chop.
Heat the coconut oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the pork chops in a single layer and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes, until the underside is deep golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and sear the second side for 3 minutes. Transfer the chops to a plate and set aside — they will finish cooking in the sauce.
