    Fall is just around the corner, and I am looking forward to all of the warm spices. Easy Spiced Pork Chops with Sweet Potato Puree packs maximum flavor with minimal effort, perfect for any night of the week.

    Easy Spiced Pork Chops with Sweet Potato Puree


    I love using pork chops for quick weeknight meals, such as my Easy Grilled Fennel Pork Chops with Peach Salsa. They're a great canvas for flavors and with a few tips and tricks always come out juicy.

    Pantry Staples

    When it comes to making weeknight dinner easy, it's all about having a well-stocked pantry. Easy Pork Chops with Sweet Potato Puree is a complete meal your entire family will love.

    Whether you are looking for an easy and elegant meal to entertain with or just want to wow your family, this dish comes together effortlessly. Complimentary textures and flavors are sure to make this a favorite.

    When you start with a spice rub filled with layers of flavor, there's no need for anything else to make your pork chops shine. For this recipe I am using Spiceology's One Love. Made with honey granules, spices, turmeric, and dehydrated butter among other ingredients it's a little sweet and a little savory. Just a quick season and the oven does the rest of the work.

    Pureed sweet potato puree makes the perfect bed for these juicy chops. Coconut milk, another pantry staple, gives it the ultimate silky texture. Coconut milk also finds its way into the earthy poblano cream sauce that comes together with just a few simple and fresh ingredients.

    The final element of this dish is the crunchy and vibrant slaw. Crisp jicama is combined with spicy radishes. A light and tangy dressing of lime and agave ties it all together.

    How to Make Easy Spiced Pork Chops with Sweet Potato Puree

    Both the slaw and the poblano cream sauce can be made ahead of time making this a great dish for meal prep or a busy weeknight.

    Time needed: 40 minutes.

    Juicy pork chops, creamy sweet potatoes, and the crunch of a fresh slaw make this a delicious and complete meal.

    1. Pork Chops

      Preheat your oven to 375. Season your pork chops and drizzle them with olive oil. Bake them until you've reached your desired temp. I like to pull them at 145 which is about 20 minutes.

    2. Sweet Potato Puree

      Cook your sweet potatoes in your favorite method, whether it's baking them or microwaving them. Remove the flesh from the skin and add to a bowl along with the coconut milk and salt. Mash until you've reached your desired consistency.

    3. Poblano Cream Sauce

      Add all of your ingredients for the cream sauce to a blender and blend until smooth.

    4. Jicama Slaw

      Add all of the ingredients for the slaw to a bowl and mix to combine.

    5. Plate it Up

      Spread the puree on the bottom of the plate. Top with a pork chop. Add the jicama slaw to the pork chop. Finish with the poblano cream sauce.

    Top Tip

    When it comes to making your Easy Spiced Pork Chops with Sweet Potato Puree, a good digital thermometer is your best friend. Because of carry over cooking always rest your meat first to allow the temperature to come down and the juices to redistribute.
