Notes
- Prepping the casserole dish by spraying with nonstick spray is optional, but highly recommended since it leads to easier cleanup later.
- Be sure to use 1/2" thick but boneless pork chops as thinner ones will cook quicker making them chewy and dry by the time the potatoes are tender.
- There's no need to peel the apple before using it in this dish, but if peels are a no go then feel free.
- Don't skip parboiling the potatoes as it will yield raw crunchy potatoes when the dish is done baking.
