Ingredients
- 4 (9-ounce) cans cut sweet potatoes, drained
- 3 pears, peeled, quartered, and cored
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans
- 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
- 3 tablespoons plus 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- Olive oil cooking spray
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon herbs de Provence
- 4 (3/4-inch thick) bone-in pork loin chops
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In an 8-inch square baking dish, combine sweet potatoes and pears. In a small bowl, mix pecans, brown sugar, 3 tablespoons of flour, and the melted butter to make a paste. Crumble mixture over potatoes and pears. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until potatoes and pears are tender.
Meanwhile, spray a roasting pan and rack with cooking spray. Place beaten egg in a shallow bowl, place remaining 1/2 cup flour on a plate and place bread crumbs mixed with herbs de Provence on another plate. Dredge pork chops in flour. Dip in egg and then the bread crumb mixture, coating the pork evenly all over. Arrange chops on a rack in prepared pan and coat lightly with cooking spray. Bake alongside pears for 20 minutes, or until pork is cooked to your desired degree of doneness. Serve pork with sweet potatoes and pears.

i think that the porkchops may possibly turn out good if they are cooked correctly. but lika another person said everyones' oven dont cook tha same so i think that it would b up to u to guessta mate what temop to put ur meat on. and i do have to admitt that the sweet potatoes and pears sounds like that is jus too much and possibly nasty......

I don't use the herbs. All of these flavors go great together. Our family loves sweet potatoes. It is also super easy...I can get home from work at 4:30 and we can be eating by 5:15. I use canned pears when I'm in a hurry. I also make the pear/potatoes during nap time if I know we have a busy evening on the days I stay at home.

I have a brand new GE Profile oven and it took double the cooking time suggested for 3/4 inch pork chops. This recipe would better suit thin breakfast chops better. Like everyone else has commented, the pork chops should have been a separate recipe from the apple/pear dish.
