Seared bone-in pork chops, caramelized apple wedges, and garlicky wilted kale all come together in one skillet with a rosemary-mustard pan sauce that tastes like it took way more effort than it actually did. The whole thing comes together in under 45 minutes and serves four, making it a genuinely satisfying weeknight dinner that doesn't feel like a compromise. Every ingredient here — the ghee, the Dijon, the chicken broth, the apple cider vinegar — is compliant by design, so there's no label-squinting or substitution math required. The technique does a lot of the heavy lifting: patting the chops dry and searing them undisturbed builds a deep golden crust, and deglazing the pan with broth and vinegar pulls all those browned bits into a silky, herb-forward sauce. Honeycrisp or Fuji apples go into the same skillet and pick up a gorgeous caramelized edge before getting nestled back in with the pork to finish cooking. The kale wilts right in the leftover sauce at the end, so nothing goes to waste and every component is coated in that rosemary-mustard goodness. It's the kind of one-pan dinner that makes eating clean feel genuinely luxurious.

Pat the pork chops thoroughly dry with paper towels, then season both sides evenly with the kosher salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a 12-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the pork chops and sear undisturbed for 4 minutes, until the underside is deep golden brown and releases easily from the pan. Flip and sear the second side for 3–4 minutes, until golden. Transfer the chops to a plate and set aside — they will finish cooking in the sauce.
