* Original recipe
* Makes 6 servings
==Ingredients==
* 6 pork chops, bone-in or boneless I had better luck fitting all the pork chops in the pan if I removed the bones first. 
* 2 tablespoons oil
* salt and pepper, to taste
* ½ cup cider vinegar
* ½ cup water Instead of the water in the sauce, I used some brewed cranberry apple herbal tea and it gave it a wonderful flavor. Because the cider vinegar has such a strong flavor, the tea didn't really make it taste more like apple, but it gave it a richer, more complex flavor. Simply brew 1 cup of Bigelow Cranberry Apple herbal tea as directed on the package and use ½ cup of the unsweetened tea in place of the water in the recipe. Note that some kinds of apple-flavored herb teas have spices added. This particular flavor does not. It just has a fresh apple flavor.
* ¾ cup granular Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
* 1 teaspoon soy sauce
* 2½ ounces onion, sliced thin, 1 small
* ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
==Directions==
# Season pork chops with salt and pepper.
# Brown on both sides in hot oil in a large nonstick skillet with a lid.
# Mix vinegar, water, Splenda and soy sauce; pour over chops.
# Scatter onions on top.
# Cover and simmer, turning occasionally, 45 minutes.
# Remove pork chops from pan and keep warm.
# Lightly sprinkle the xanthan gum over the pan juices and quickly whisk in.
# Simmer until thickened and serve sauce over chops.
