Pork Chop with Spiced Dates, Prosciutto, Green Beans & Sweet PotatoPork Chop with Spiced Dates, Prosciutto, Green Beans & Sweet Potato — a 40-minute dinner recipe with 10 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

6 cloves garlic

0.68 kg green beans

⅓ cup medjool dates, pitted

6 pork chops, boneless

12 slices prosciutto

0.68 kg sweet potato

black pepper

cinnamon, ground

extra virgin olive oil

salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).

Wash and dry sweet potatoes, then peel and large dice; place on a baking sheet pan, drizzle with oil, and season with spices. Toss to combine and spread out in an even layer.

Place baking sheet in the oven (it doesn't have to be fully heated) and roast, tossing halfway through, until sweet potatoes are fork tender about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, peel and mince garlic; mince dates. Place both in a small bowl along with oil and spices; stir to combine the date topping and set aside.

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

While the skillet heats up, pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and place on a plate; season with salt and pepper on both sides.

Once the skillet is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom; working in batches if necessary, add chops and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Once golden, transfer to another baking sheet (the pork will not be cooked all the way through). Reserve skillet with juices for later use.

Divide date topping between chops and layer each with two slices of prosciutto.

Add layered chops to the oven and roast until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven.

Meanwhile, wash, dry, and trim green beans.

Peel and mince additional garlic.

Return the skillet to medium-high heat, add more oil, and swirl to coat the bottom; add beans and salt. Stir-fry until lightly charred and fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds; remove from heat.

To serve, divide layered pork chops, sweet potatoes, and green beans between plates. Enjoy!
