Pork chops are always a dinner winner. They’re satisfying, speedy, and so versatile, which is why our chefs are always thinking up new ways to take them to the next level. This week, they amped up the flavors…big time. Sweet and savory is the name of the game here. Tender chops are coated in brown sugar bourbon spice (which is all kinds of savory-sweet in and of itself), then seared and topped with a buttery apple pan sauce. Roasted green beans and scallion-flecked mashed potatoes pair perfectly with the main event. Prepare yourself for a flavor explosion.

Instructions

Cook Potatoes
1

• Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. • Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Place in a medium pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes. • Reserve ½ cup potato cooking liquid, then drain and return potatoes to pot. • Keep covered off heat until ready to mash in step 5.

Cook Pork
2

• While potatoes cook, pat pork* dry with paper towels. Season all over with Brown Sugar Bourbon Seasoning. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side. TIP: If the pork begins to brown too quickly, reduce heat to medium. • Turn off heat; transfer pork to a plate. Wipe out pan.

Roast Beans & Prep
3

• While pork cooks, toss green beans on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast on middle rack until lightly browned, 12-15 minutes. • Meanwhile, halve, core, and dice apple into ¼-inch pieces. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.

Make Sauce
4

• Heat 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) and a drizzle of oil in pan used for pork over medium-high heat. Add apple and scallion whites; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 4-6 minutes. • Stir in stock concentrate, ½ cup water (¾ cup for 4), and ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4). Cook until sauce is thickened and apple is tender, 5-7 minutes. • In the last 2 minutes, return pork to pan until warmed through. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off heat.

Mash Potatoes
5

• Mash potatoes until mostly smooth. • Stir in scallion greens, sour cream, 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings), and a splash of reserved potato cooking liquid. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: If needed, add more potato cooking liquid a splash at a time until potatoes are smooth and creamy.

Serve
6

• Divide pork, mashed potatoes, and green beans between plates. Top pork with apple pan sauce and serve.
