Time 58m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup maple syrup
3 cups beef broth
1 cup Merlot wine
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup water
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 (4-ounce) pork chops
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • To cook the sweet potatoes: Place them in a medium saucepot and cover with water. Bring the water to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and place them into a food processor. Add the butter and maple syrup and process until smooth and creamy. (The sweet potatoes can also be mashed by hand.) Transfer to a bowl and keep warm or cool and reheat.
  • To make the sauce: Combine the broth and wine in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat then reduce by one third. Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk the cornstarch with 1/4 cup water until smooth. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the simmering sauce. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm over low heat.
  • To cook the pork: Heat a cast iron skillet or grill pan over high heat. Season the pork with salt and pepper. Brush the chops with oil then cook until barely pink at the center, about 4 minutes per side. Allow the pork to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Arrange sweet potatoes and pork chops on 2 plates. Spoon sauce around the chops and serve.

I didn't have any merlot wine, so I used a different type of red wine. The sauce still turned out good.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pork chops were overcooked. I would recommend cooking them for a shorter amount of time.

I made a few changes to the recipe, but the pork chops still turned out great. I used a different type of wine for the sauce and I added some herbs to the chops. I would definitely make this again.
