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.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 egg, lightly beaten
1 quart heavy cream, divided
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
6 boneless pork chops
½ cup quick cooking oats
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
1 tablespoon butter
1 large onion, cut into 1 inch chunks
1 clove garlic, diced
¾ cup maple syrup
6 ounces sliced fresh mushrooms
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Mix the egg, 3 cups heavy cream, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, and dip in the cream mixture. Then dredge in the oats to coat. Repeat to coat chops completely.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Use tongs to place the coated chops in the hot oil, and fry until browned on both sides. Remove from heat, and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat (you may use the same skillet if the oil has been drained), and cook the pork chops, onion, and garlic until onion is tender. Pour in the maple syrup, and mix in mushrooms and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook 10 minutes, or until pork chops are done. Remove chops from skillet, reserving sauce.
  • Mix the remaining cream into the skillet with reserved sauce. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir until thickened. Serve over the pork chops.

Tips:

  • To ensure evenly cooked pork chops, use a meat mallet or tenderizer to pound them to an even thickness. This will also help the marinade penetrate more deeply.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the pork chops. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming tough.
  • Resist the urge to flip the pork chops too often. Let them sear undisturbed for a few minutes on each side to develop a nice crust.
  • To prevent the pork chops from drying out, baste them with the marinade or melted butter during cooking.
  • If you're using a grill, preheat it to medium-high heat before cooking the pork chops. This will help to prevent them from sticking.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to your desired doneness. The internal temperature should reach 145°F for medium-rare, 155°F for medium, and 165°F for well-done.

Conclusion:

Maple pork chops are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The sweet and savory flavors of the maple glaze complement the pork chops perfectly, and the tender, juicy meat is sure to please everyone at the table. Whether you're grilling, pan-frying, or baking your pork chops, be sure to follow these tips for perfectly cooked pork chops every time.
