Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon and cayenne. Stir in the apple cider and cream. Add the pork chops, nestling them into the liquid, and cook until the internal temperature of the pork reaches between 145 degrees F. (medium rare) and 160 degrees F. (medium), 3 to 4 minutes per side.
4. Serve the chops with the apple mixture spooned on top.

Ingredients

• 4 slices thick-cut bacon
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 russet potatoes (large, baked, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes)
• 1 yellow onion (medium, chopped)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 Fuji Apple (large, peeled, cored and diced)
• 3/4 teaspoon seasoning (maple)
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
• kosher salt
• freshly ground black pepper
• 4 New York (top loin) pork chops (1 inch thick)
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (plus more to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (plus more to taste)
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 3/4cup chicken stock
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup
• 3 tablespoons heavy cream

Cooking Directions

1. Potato-Apple Hash: Cook bacon in large skillet over medium heat until crisp and browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Reserve the bacon fat – about 4 tbsps. Heat butter and 2 tbsps of bacon fat in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
2. Add potato, onion, garlic, and apple and cook until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the maple seasoning and cinnamon, if using. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
3. Pork Chops: Heat remaining bacon fat in a large skillet over medium heat. Season pork chops with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Add to skillet and cover. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted through the center of the chop reads 145 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Transfer the chops to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
4. Maple Gravy: Pour off all but 1 tbsp of the pan drippings from the skillet. Whisk flour into pan drippings and let bubble over medium heat for 1 minute. Whisk in broth, maple syrup and cream and bring to a boil. Cook, whisking often, until mixture reduces and thickens, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Serve: Crumble the bacon into the hash. Serve chops hot with the hash and sauce.

Ingredients

• 4 pork loin chops (Bone-In, Or Boneless New York Pork Chops, About 6 Ounces Each)
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 small yellow onion (Chopped)
• 2 cloves garlic (Minced)
• 30 ounces white navy beans (Cannellini Or Great Northern Beans, Reserving Liquid From One Can)
• 1 lemon (Zested And Juiced, 2 Tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice)
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1 tablespoon herbes de provence
• 1 tablespoon herbes de provence
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon red chile flakes
• 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese (Freshly Grated, Divided)
• 2 cups baby arugula
• extra virgin olive oil (For Drizzling)
• 1 lemon (Cut Into Quarters, For Serving)

Directions

1. Season the pork with salt and pepper. Using a large flameproof skillet (such as cast iron), heat the pan for 5 minutes over low heat. Add oil and pan-sear pork chop on one side until browned, 3-minutes. Remove pork and set aside.
2. In the same pan, add the onion. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and browned around the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until lightly browned and fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the beans with the reserved liquid, lemon zest and juice, Herbes de Provence, chili flakes, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook to slightly reduce the liquid, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Stir in 1/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Nestle the pork into the beans with the browned-side facing up, leaving the tops exposed. Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup Parmesan over the chops and beans.
3. Position a rack in the center of the oven. Do not preheat the broiler. Put the skillet with the pork and beans in the cold oven and then turn the broiler to high. Cook until the chops look opaque, an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into the center of a chop reads between 145 degrees F. and 160 degrees F., and the cheese is melted and lightly browned, 10 to 13 minutes. If the beans brown before the chops are done, move the skillet to a lower rack of the oven and continue cooking. Remove from the oven and let stand for 3 minutes before serving.
4. While the pork is in the oven, dress the arugula with the olive oil, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.
5. Transfer each chop to a plate, topping each with a portion of beans, cheese side up. Divide dressed arugula among the plates.

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 pounds New York (top loin) pork roast (boneless)
• 1 1/2 cups fresh rosemary
• 12 cloves garlic
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 1/2 pounds small red potatoes (cut into 1/2-inch wedges)

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2. In a food processor, combine rosemary leaves, garlic, oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper and pulse to make a coarse, wet paste, scraping down the bowl as necessary. Spread 3/4 of paste on all sides of roast. Place roast, fat side up, in shallow roasting pan large enough to hold roast with 3 inches room around all sides. Roast 15 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine potatoes and remaining paste.
4. Reduce oven to 350 degrees F. Add potato mixture to pan, arranging potatoes around roast. Continue roasting 40-45 minutes, tossing potatoes halfway through, or until internal temperature of roast reaches 145 degrees F and potatoes are tender. (If roast is done before potatoes, transfer it to a cutting board and return roasting pan with potatoes to oven.)
5. Remove roast from oven and let rest 10 minutes. Slice roast and arrange on platter. Surround with potatoes and serve.
