Skillet Apple Pork Chops with Roasted Sweet Potatoes Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 4 pieces pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
  • 2 medium apples (sliced)
  • 2 cups sweet potatoes (cubed)
  • 2 cups zucchini (sliced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (for seasoning)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional for sweetness)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (for cooking the pork)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
  2. Prepare Vegetables

    Toss the cubed sweet potatoes and sliced zucchini with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

    Spread them evenly on a baking sheet for roasting.
  3. Roast Vegetables

    Roast the sweet potatoes and zucchini in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until tender.

    Stir halfway through for even cooking.
  4. Cook Pork Chops

    In a skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, and cinnamon, then sear them for 4-5 minutes per side.

    Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes after cooking.
  5. Add Apples

    Add sliced apples to the skillet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until soft.

    You can drizzle honey over the apples for extra sweetness.

💡 Tips & Tricks

Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Choose firm apples like Granny Smith for the best flavor. Let the pork chops rest before slicing for juiciness.
