4 tsp spicy brown mustard, divided
2 lean pork chops, 1" thick - (abt 6 oz ea)

Add liquid from remaining cabbage-apple mixture to skillet. Combine remaining 1/4 cup cider, 2 teaspoons mustard and cornstarch in small bowl until smooth. Stir into liquid in skillet. Simmer over medium heat until thickened.

Spoon glaze over chops and cabbage-apple mixture. Slice remaining 2 apple quarters; divide between servings.
