Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 bone-in pork chops, each about 1 inch thick (about 2 1/2 pounds total)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
1 large sweet onion, such as Vidalia, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
1/3 cup apple-cider vinegar
1/2 cup apple cider
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
2 apples, preferably Honeycrisp, thinly sliced, seeds removed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Season pork with salt and pepper. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat; swirl in oil. Cook chops until golden brown, turning once, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Remove all but 2 tablespoons fat from skillet.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add potatoes and onion; season with salt. Cook until golden in spots, about 10 minutes. Add vinegar and cider. Cover and simmer, stirring a few times, until potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with caraway seeds. Return pork and juices to skillet; tuck apple slices between chops. Roast until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of chops (without touching bone) registers 138 degrees, about 10 minutes. Serve pork, vegetables, and apples with pan juices.

30-Minute Spicy Pork and Sweet Potato Stew image

Spicy, smoky chipotle chiles and chili powder add long-cooked flavor to this quick pork stew. To save time and use less fat, only the pork is browned in oil, while the onions get pureed with tomatoes, garlic and the chile to make the broth.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup canned unsalted diced tomatoes
1 medium white onion, quartered
2 cloves garlic
1/2 chipotle in adobo sauce, plus 1 tablespoon of the sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1-inch chunks (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chili powder
One 8-ounce sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon pickled jalapenos
1 cup 2 percent Greek yogurt
1/4 medium head red cabbage
1 medium Haas avocado
1 lime
1/2 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro
Eight 6-inch corn tortillas, warmed

Steps:

  • Puree the tomatoes, onions, garlic, chipotle and adobo sauce in a food processor until completely smooth.
  • Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat until nearly smoking. Add the pork in a single layer, season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, undisturbed, until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Turn the pieces and cook until brown, about 1 minute more. Dust the meat with the chili powder, and add the tomato puree, sweet potatoes, chicken broth, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover and gently simmer until the meat is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the toppings: Chop the jalapenos, and whisk together with the yogurt in a small bowl. Shred the cabbage, cut the avocado into chunks and cut the lime into wedges.
  • Ladle the stew into large, deep bowls. Top with the yogurt mixture, garnish with the cabbage, avocado, lime and cilantro and serve with the tortillas.

SPICY MAPLE ROASTED PORK CHOPS AND SWEET POTATOES



Spicy Maple Roasted Pork Chops and Sweet Potatoes image

This was another successful, tossed-together kitchen creation. It is best described as spicy pork chops surrounded by roasted sweet potatoes coated in a spicy maple glaze. The sweet potatoes turn out soft on the inside and somewhat crispy on the outside, and the pork chops turn out juicy and spicy. DH and I enjoyed eating a bite of sweet potato with each bite of pork chop. I like to leave the skin on my sweet potatoes when roasting due to its nutritional value and crispy texture, but feel free to peel if desired. This truly is spicy. If you desire to tone down the heat, please do use less cayenne pepper.

2 pork chops, bone-in, 1/2-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon paprika, ground

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, ground
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 sweet potatoes, medium-sized, skin-on, cut into 1-inch x 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil

Note: Be sure to use a rubber spatula to scrape all the liquid out of the bowl onto the potatoes.
  • Rub remaining half of spice mixture lightly over both sides of pork chops and nestle into spaces made in sweet potatoes.
  • Roast for 35-40 minutes or until pork chops are done (juices run clear when thickest part is pierced with a fork).

CIDER-DIJON PORK CHOPS WITH ROASTED SWEET POTATOES AND APPLES



Cider-Dijon Pork Chops with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Apples image

Sautéing is another fast way to make a meal, especially when the pan juices are turned into a sweet and savory sauce, as they are here. This comforting dish features an array of autumn ingredients-apples, fennel, and sweet potatoes-roasted in the oven to caramelize lightly and bring their sugars to the forefront. The sauce, which mingles apple cider with the meaty browned bits in the skillet, is sharpened with a bit of Dijon mustard to balance the sweetness.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

Pork
4 boneless pork loin chops (each about 7 ounces and 1 inch thick)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup apple cider or apple juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 2 pieces
Vegetables and Apples
1 pound red-skinned sweet potatoes (yams), peeled and cut lengthwise in half, then cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces
2 Pink Lady or Fuji apples, cored and cut lengthwise into eighths
1 large fennel bulb, trimmed and cut lengthwise into eighths
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Remove the pork from the refrigerator and let stand at room temperature while the oven preheats. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven and heat until very hot.
  • 2. To cook the vegetables and apples: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes, apples, fennel, and rosemary with the olive oil to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and spread the vegetables and apples on it. Roast, turning the ingredients over halfway through, for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are nicely browned and tender.
  • 3. Meanwhile, cook the pork: Season the pork with salt and pepper. Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then add the chops to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and barely pink when pierced in the center with the tip of a small sharp knife. Transfer to a platter (reserving the oil in the skillet) and let stand for 5 minutes.
  • 4. Pour off all but 1 teaspoon of the oil from the skillet, leaving the brown bits in the pan. Return the pan to medium-low heat, add the apple cider, and bring to a simmer, scraping up the brown bits with a wooden spoon. Whisk in the mustard and simmer for about 2 minutes to reduce the liquid slightly. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter to lightly thicken the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • 5. Divide the sweet potato mixture among four dinner plates. Place a pork chop alongside the vegetables on each plate. Drizzle with the pan sauce and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Look for bone-in, center-cut pork chops that are about 1 inch thick. These chops will cook evenly and stay juicy.
  • Make sure the pork chops are completely dry before cooking: This will help them brown evenly.
  • Use a hot skillet: This will help create a nice sear on the pork chops.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the pork chops will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without overcooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer: The best way to tell if the pork chops are cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. Pork chops are safe to eat when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in more tender and juicy pork chops.
  • Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for pork chops include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and green beans.

Conclusion:

Spicy maple roasted pork chops and sweet potatoes is a quick and easy weeknight meal that's packed with flavor. The pork chops are juicy and tender, the sweet potatoes are perfectly roasted, and the maple syrup glaze is the perfect finishing touch. This dish is sure to please the whole family.
