Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Trim and halve Brussels sprouts. Core and dice apple into 1/2-inch pieces. Finely chop rosemary leaves.
- Place potatoes in a pot with salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to pot. Mash with sour cream, 1 tbsp butter and salt to taste. Keep warm.
- Meanwhile, on a baking sheet, toss Brussels sprouts with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast until tender and browned, about 15-20 minutes.
- Pat pork chops dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear pork chops until golden and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and rest.
- In the same skillet, add diced apple and cook for 1 minute. Add rosemary, chicken stock concentrate, Dijon mustard, sugar and 1/4 cup water. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in remaining 1 tbsp butter until melted.
- Serve pork chops with mashed potatoes and roasted Brussels sprouts. Drizzle apple rosemary pan sauce over the pork.
Recipe Tips
For extra creamy mashed potatoes, warm the sour cream before adding.
Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes after cooking to keep them juicy.
If the pan sauce is too thick, add a splash of water to thin it.
