Slow Cooker Pork Chops and Red Cabbage
20 mins prepServes 6
Tender slow cooker pork chops and red cabbage are simmered with smoky bacon, sweet apples, onions, and red wine for an easy comfort food dinner that's perfect for busy days and cozy evenings.
1 Cook the bacon in a large skillet until the fat is rendered and the bacon begins to crisp. Transfer the bacon to the slow cooker, reserving the drippings in the skillet.
2 Season the pork chops generously with salt and pepper, then brown them in the bacon drippings for 2 to 3 minutes per side until golden. (Work in batches if needed.)
3 Add the remaining ingredients to the slow cooker and stir to combine. Nestle the browned pork chops on top of the cabbage mixture.
4 Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours, or until the pork chops are tender and the cabbage has cooked down.
5 Remove the bay leaves, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, then sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
