Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the cherry jam, Dijon mustard, chicken stock concentrate and BBQ seasoning. Set aside.
3. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
4. Heat the cooking oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
5. Brush the cherry Dijon glaze generously over the pork chops. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 10-12 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
6. While the pork chops roast, prepare the biscuits according to package directions. Before baking, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of each biscuit. Bake until golden and the cheese is melted.
7. Toss the green beans with melted butter, salt and pepper. Spread them on a separate baking sheet and roast for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
8. Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving. Plate the pork chops alongside the biscuits and green beans. Drizzle any remaining glaze over the pork.
