Ingredients
Directions
4 oz Lean boneless pork chops1/2 tspn Canola oilto taste Salt & Pepper1 small Yam, peeled and chopped 1/4" thick1/2 cup Orange Juice1/2 cup Dry Sherry
Place a heavy 8" (or 10") nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Brush the pork chops on both sides with the oil, then sprinkle them with the salt and pepper. Lay the cops in the skillet and cook for 3 minutes per side, or until well-browned.
Peel the yams and cut them into circles 1/4" thick.
Remove the cops from the skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the orange juice and sherry. Add the yams, cover the skillet and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and no trace of pink shows in the center of the pork when tested with a sharp knife.
Remove the pork chops to a warm serving plate and rapidly cook the yams and orange juice over high heat until the glaze is thick and syrupy. Arrange the yams by the pork chops, spoon the glaze over both and serve immediately.
