I grew up on a farm in Ohio where good food like this was a way of life. I've had this recipe for as long as I can remember and consider it a great meal to serve when entertaining. Ingredients:
4 cups cooked sliced sweet potatoes |
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
4 pork chops (1/2 inch thick) |
2 tablespoons butter or margarine |
1/2 cup orange juice |
1/2 cup currant jelly |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel |
1 teaspoon ground mustard |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger |
Directions:
1. Place potatoes in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, salt and pepper; coat pork chops. In a skillet over medium heat, brown chops in butter for 4-5 minutes on each side or until browned; remove chops and place over sweet potatoes. Drain drippings from skillet. Add remaining ingredients; cook and stir until smooth and bubbly. Pour 3/4 cup sauce over pork chops. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-40 minutes or until pork is tender. Brush chops with remaining sauce. Yield: 4 servings. |
