What You'll Need
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 (3/4-inch) pork loin chops (1-1/4-1-1/2 pounds total)
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 (8-1/4-ounce) can pineapple chunks in juice, drained and juice reserved
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 (29-ounce) can yams, drained and cut into 1-inch chunks
What to Do
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and pepper. Completely coat the pork chops in the flour mixture.
- In a large deep skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Brown the pork chops for 5 minutes per side.
- In a small bowl, combine the reserved pineapple juice, the brown sugar, and cinnamon; pour over the pork chops and cook until the sauce is thickened, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to low, turn the pork chops over, and add the pineapple chunks and yams to the skillet. Cover and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, or until heated through and the pork is cooked.
