Season pork chops

Chop vegetables
Peel and chop the onions. Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Prepare quince
Peel, core, and cut the quince into 1/2-inch thick slices.
Brown pork chops
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until browned. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.
Sauté onions and garlic
In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté for 5 minutes or until the onions are softened and translucent.
Add quince and spices
Add the sliced quince, cinnamon stick, ground nutmeg, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine with the onions and garlic.
Return pork chops to skillet
Return the browned pork chops to the skillet, nestling them among the quince slices.
Add water and simmer
Pour the water into the skillet and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the pork chops and quince simmer for 30-35 minutes or until the pork is tender and the quince is softened.
Serve
Remove the cinnamon stick from the skillet and discard it. Serve the Balkan Pork Chops with Quince hot, spooning the quince sauce over the pork chops.
