Ingredients

* 4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
* Salt
* 4 bone-in pork chops, 1-inch thick
* Freshly ground black pepper
* 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
* 2 large onions, yellow or red, thinly sliced
* 2 Gala or Golden Delicious apples, thinly sliced
* 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh thyme leaves
* 1 lemon
* 4 tablespoons butter
* 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
* 1 cup apple cider
* 2 cups chicken stock
* 2 rounded tablespoons orange marmalade

Directions

In a medium pot add sweet potatoes and cover with salted water. Bring
to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until fork tender, 15 to 18
minutes.

Season chops with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon extra-virgin
olive oil, a turn of the pan, in a large skillet over medium-high
heat. Cook pork 5 minutes on the first side until deeply golden, turn
and cook 3 to 4 minutes more with a loose foil tent over the pan.
Remove cooked chops to a plate and cover to keep warm. Add another
turn of the pan of olive oil, add the onions and apples. Season with
salt, pepper and thyme and cook until just tender, 5 to 6 minutes.
Douse with juice of a lemon and remove onions and apples to a bowl;
keep warm.

Add 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet, melt then whisk in flour,
cook 1 minute then whisk in cider and 1 cup of stock. Season the gravy
with salt and pepper. Thicken 4 to 5 minutes over medium-low heat.

Drain cooked sweet potatoes and return pan to stove. Melt 2
tablespoons butter and combine with marmalade and 1 cup stock. Add
potatoes and mash, season with salt and pepper.

Serve chop covered with apples and onions, gravy poured down over top,
sweet potatoes alongside.
