Servings: 4 Servings

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees and heat a large heavy skillet over med-hi heat, add the ghee to melt.

Pork Chops:

  1. Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper and Primal Palate Amore seasoning on both sides.
  2. Once skillet and ghee are sizzling, add pork chops and sear until toast brown on the first side (about 3-4 mins) then flip and repeat for second side. (They should be nearly cooked through at this point, adjust timing for thickness)
  3. Remove to a large plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Lower heat to medium/low and add balsamic and honey/date paste, if using, whisking. Raise heat to med and cook for 5 mins, until mixture is reduced and beginning to turn syrupy.
  4. Return pork chops to skillet and cook another 2-3 mins, flipping once to coat them in balsamic. Sprinkle with rosemary if using. Serve with sweet potato apple mixture, drizzling extra glaze over the top.

Sweet Potato/Apple Mix:

  1. Toss sweet potatoes with oil and arrange sweet potatoes on a large (nonstick) baking sheet (you can also line with parchment if desired), sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 25 mins, then stir/flip and add the apples and onions.
  2. Continue to roast another 15 mins or until apples and onions are soft and sweet potatoes are toasty. Serve with pork chops, with extra balsamic glaze if desired. Enjoy!
