Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt two-thirds of the butter. Add the pork chops and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let rest for 3 minutes.
Return the skillet to medium-high heat and melt the remaining butter. Add the apples and onion, cooking until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, rosemary, cinnamon, cayenne, apple juice, and cream.
Nestle the pork chops into the liquid and cook until the internal temperature reaches 145°F for medium rare or 160°F for medium, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Serve pork chops with the apple mixture on top.
