Maple Glazed Pork Chops with Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 bone-in pork chops
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, minced garlic, dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Place the pork chops in a shallow dish and pour the maple syrup mixture over them. Let them marinate for 10 minutes.
- While the pork chops are marinating, toss the cubed sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet in a single layer.
- Place the marinated pork chops on a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the pork chops and sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the sweet potatoes are tender and golden brown.
- While the pork chops and sweet potatoes are baking, transfer the remaining marinade to a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze thickens slightly.
- Once the pork chops and sweet potatoes are done, brush the glaze over the pork chops before serving. Enjoy the maple glazed pork chops with the roasted sweet potatoes as a delicious side dish.
