Pan-Roasted Pork Chops & Potatoes
A shortcut marinade gives these chops plenty of flavor, and the crumb coating packs on the crunch. For color, I like to tuck in a few handfuls of Brussels sprouts. —Char Ouellette, Colton, Oregon

Good flavors on the pork although I tend to dry my pork out.....gotta practice. The potatoes didn't cook as crispy as I'd like. And next time, I'll roast green beans instead of brussels sprouts. Just not a fan.
I found the timeframe for roasting the vegetables was far too long, especially, the brussels sprouts. Instructions to roast, add pork chops, continue roasting, then broil was too much. I removed the brussels sprouts to roast/broil the pork chops. Marinating the pork chops did result in very tender and tasty chops.
This was an easy and delicious dinner! My husband said it was one of the best pork chops he's ever had. My kids ate Brussels sprouts. The hardest part is just remembering to defrost the pork and marinade it ahead of time.
