Brown Sugar Bourbon Pork Chops With Apple Pan Sauce Scallion Mashed Potatoes Roasted Green Beans Recipes

BROWN SUGAR BOURBON PORK CHOPS WITH APPLE PAN SAUCE, SCALLION MASHED POTATOES & ROASTED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

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