Prepare the apples
Place the base of 1 apple on the chopping board. To make the first cut, start with the knife blade slightly offset from the stem, about ¼”, and slice down. Repeat on the other 3 sides to core the apple. Place the apple pieces flat-side down on the chopping board and cut into ¼”-thick slices. Core and slice the remaining apple. Add the apple slices to the June Pan.

Roast the apples
Carefully transfer the pan to the bottom shelf of the oven. Roast the apples 10 minutes, until beginning to soften. June will notify you when the apples are ready.
Start the coating
While the apples are roasting, start the coating. Add the panko bread crumbs to a large resealable bag. Seal the bag, pressing out as much air as possible. Use a rolling pin or another heavy object to lightly crush the crumbs in the bag.

Coat the pork chops
Add one pork chop to the bag and seal the bag. Shake the bag to coat the pork chop in the coating. If needed, use your fingers to press the crumbs onto the pork to coat it completely. Place the coated pork chop on the roasting rack over the apples. Repeat with the remaining chops.

Serve the pork and apples
Remove the pan from the oven. Let the pork chops cool on the rack for 3 minutes before transferring the pork chops to plates or a serving platter. Serve hot, with the apples and onions alongside.
