Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup/120 ml apple cider or juice, plus more if needed
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Salt
2 boneless, center-cut loin pork chops, about 3/4 in/2 cm thick
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium sweet potato, about 1/2 lb/225 g, peeled and very thinly sliced
1 Braeburn, Gala, or other sweet-tart apple, cored and thinly sliced
1 shallot, minced
1 tsp Dijon mustard, smooth or whole-grain (see "it's that easy")
2 tsp minced fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • 1. Combine the cider, cinnamon and 1/4 tsp salt in a cup. Set aside.
  • 2. Pat the pork chops dry and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper.
  • 3. Heat a 12-in/30.5-cm skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil shimmers, add the seasoned pork chops to the pan and cook until lightly browned on the first side, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook until browned on the second side, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer the pork chops to a plate. (They will not be cooked through at this point.)
  • 4. Add the sweet potato, apple, shallot, cider mixture, and a grind or two of pepper to the hot pan. Bring it all to a simmer, cover, and reduce the heat to medium-low or low-the pan should bubble, but not too aggressively. Cook the potato mixture until a fork easily pierces the partially cooked potato but there is still some resistance, about 10 minutes.
  • 5. Return the pork chops to the pan (along with any juices accumulated on the plate) and nestle them into the potatoes and apples. Cover and cook until the meat is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 8 minutes longer. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  • 6. Transfer the pork chops, potatoes, and apples to two warmed plates. There should be some liquid remaining in the pan to serve as a base for the sauce. (If the potatoes have absorbed all of the liquid, add 2 to 3 tbsp cider to the pan and heat it briefly over medium heat.) Stir the mustard into the pan juices with a fork. Taste the sauce and add more pepper if it needs it.
  • 7. Spoon the sauce over the meat and vegetables, sprinkle the parsley over the top, and serve hot.

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.

Provided by SarasotaCook

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 8h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 1/2 lbs pork loin, butterflied
3 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut in 2-inch pieces
2 apples, granny smith, cut into thick wedges
2 onions, medium, cut in half and then thin sliced
1/2 cup apple cider
1/2 cup white wine
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons fresh thyme
2 tablespoons fresh parsley
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 bay leaf
6 tablespoons maple syrup
5 ounces herb cheese spread
1/2 cup pecans, fine chopped
1/2 cup dried cranberries, chopped
1/8 cup cornstarch, to thicken the sauce
salt and pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil, to saute

Steps:

  • Stuffing -- Mix the cranberries, pecans and herb cheese and spread on the inside of the pork loin along with a little salt and pepper and tie up with kitchen twine. Season the loin well with salt and pepper and pan saute in a large pan in olive oil until lightly brown on each side and transfer to a crock pot.
  • Vegetables -- To the crock pot add the potatoes, apples, onions and then top with all the herbs, seasoning, maple syrup, cider and white wine. Cover and cook 10-12 hrs on low, or 7-9 on medium high.
  • Once done, remove and let set before slicing. I take the vegetables out and transfer to a bowl and cover. I like to add a little corn starch to some sauce to make a slurry to lightly thicken the sauce. This is optional.
  • Top the pork loin with the vegetable mixture and a little gravy for a great dinner.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples in your dish for a more complex flavor. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Peel and cube the sweet potatoes before adding them to the pot. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Add a splash of apple cider or apple juice to the pot for extra flavor.
  • Serve the pork chops with the apples and sweet potatoes over mashed potatoes or rice.

Conclusion:

Pork with apples and sweet potatoes is a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
