Step 1
Season pork chops all over with paprika, salt, and pepper.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add pork chops and cook, turning halfway through, until golden, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
To the same skillet, add apple, onion, and garlic and cook until apples and onion are browned and slightly softened, about 8 minutes. Add herbs, and apple cider and bring to a simmer. Return pork chops to skillet and simmer until cider is almost completely reduced and a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chops registers 145°, 6 to 8 more minutes.
