Instructions
Step 1: Slicing The Apples
Begin by preparing the apples. Peel them using a vegetable peeler, remove the cores, and thinly slice them. The thin slices will cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the glaze.
Step 2: The Glaze
Melt the unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the salt, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg when the butter has melted. Mix the liquid thoroughly when the sugar has completely dissolved.
Step 3: Cooking The Apples
Add the thinly sliced apples to the skillet, coating them thoroughly with the glaze. Sauté the apples for about 5-7 minutes until they become tender and slightly caramelized.
Step 4: Adding Lemon Juice
Pour the lemon juice over the glazed apples and give it a short toss to bring out the flavor and balance the sweetness. The caramelized sugar is enhanced by the delicious tanginess that the lemon juice brings.
