Steps

Heat half the olive oil in a large lidded skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes and a quarter of the salt, cover and cook 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until nearly tender.
Add the green beans to the potatoes, cover and cook 5 to 6 minutes more until both are tender and lightly browned. Transfer to a platter and keep warm.
Season the pork chops with the paprika, half the thyme, the black pepper and half the salt.
Heat the remaining olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops 4 to 5 minutes per side until they reach 145°F (63°C) inside. Move to a plate and rest at least 3 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium and melt the butter in the skillet. Add the onion and apple and cook 5 minutes until softened and golden. Stir in the garlic for 30 seconds.
Add the chicken broth, mustard, cider vinegar, the remaining thyme and the remaining salt, scraping up the browned bits. Simmer 3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Return the pork chops and any juices to the skillet to warm briefly, then serve with the apples, onions and sauce spooned over, alongside the potatoes and green beans.
