This recipe is simple and very good! To make it healthier, I added some carrots and used 2 tbl. Splenda and 1 tbl. of brown sugar. I also sprinkled cinnamon over everything. Cooking it for 1hr 15 min made everything a little too mushy. I think it depends on how small you cut everything up.

i had to add extra spices to give this dish flavor. without extra cinn. and nutmeg, this would have been a very bland dish

I tried this with Cortland apples and found it was too strong of a taste. Macintosh's work best with this recipe and my family's tastes. We like to mash the apples over top of the pork and eat it that way. The others weren't kidding when they said to fine slice the sweet potatoes either. If you don't they'll be crunchy. Good recipe and easy too.

This dish was really disappointing. The aroma when it is cooking raises your expecations for excellent flavor - but it turned out to be extrememly bland. I followed the recipe exactly and ended up with a boring flavor and dry pork. I will not make this again.

I followed this recipe exactly, except for adding a little more brown sugar. It was pretty much tasteless... the chops absorbed a bit of the flavour, but it just tasted like apples. Everything baked perfectly, the onions, apples, chops and potatoes were all tender, but there was about an inch of watery apple/fat on the bottom of the dish. We were all pretty let down, because it smelled delicious. We give it two stars because it was edible.

This recipe is easy and good! My husband and I both enjoyed it - the girls liked parts of it, but you know how kids are - I imagine they will like different parts next time :) I revised the recipe to make it ( In my opinion ) fit into Stage Two of the South Beach Diet. The sweet potatoes are a "good carb", I think that apples are ok in moderation, and I just left the brown sugar out entirely. There are probably other spices I could have added since I took that out but I didn't have time and it was good with just the salt and pepper. Great!

Outstanding! I peeled the yams. I added a little more brown sugar and also some cinnamon. My apples were done sooner than the rest so I removed them. Chops were very juicy.

We loved this! It is very simple, but the combination is delicious. I had trouble with the sweet potatoes being undercooked and dried out the first time and had to microwave them the rest of the way. Now I slice them thinner and put them near the bottom and outside of the pan. I also used a very dark brown sugar, much darker than regular store brands so it had a deeper molasses flavor. The type of apple makes a big difference also. We prefer a middle of the road apple as far as sweetness. The Granny Smith was a bit too tart, but can be balanced with more brown sugar.

I had just cooked another pork chop recipe from this site--"Broiled Pork Chops"--a few nights ago, which was received with raves by my family, so this recipe had a lot to live up to! Fortunately everyone liked it very much. I didn't modify the recipe by much. I cooked 6 chops instead of 4, and only used 1 apple (that was all we had). I chose to use 1 onion as that seemed like more than enough after I'd arranged it all on the plate. The only thing I would recommend to anyone else is that you may want to add an extra bit of brown sugar--the consensus was that it could've used a bit more. Also, it took about an hour and a half to cook instead of an hour (oven is new, so probably related to the altitude) so for anyone who's going to make this, you may want to start it a little early just in case! I served it with Mexican Corn, also on this site, and it was a nice complement to have something spicy with the sweetness of the brown sugar and yams.

This was awesome. My boyfriend has never wanted pork chops - until now. The chops were a bit dry, but that's my fault. Please remember to cover the dish!! I think next time I'll sear the chops before I put them in. The potatoes were perfect. I even threw in some button mushrooms after 45 minutes. Yum!

If I could give this more than 5 stars I would - but that was on my second try. The first try was a bit of a disaster but still tasted terrific. I'd like to pass on what I learned: The amount of ingredients were on the mark, except for the pepper. 1)make sure you slice the onion and sweet potatoes very thin - they will then cook within the hr. 2) Cut the apples thicker - not too thick - since they take a shorter amt of time to cook (if too thin they will turn to mush) 3) Use the "GRANULATED" brown suger (I used the old fashioned kind the first time and it wouldn't melt - the pepper got stuck in the sugar - I had to mush in down - not a pretty sight!). I also cut back on the pepper the second time - we love pepper, especially on sweet potatoes but found that 1 tsp. was sufficient). I cooked this in a corningware baking dish with cover and the second time it was a pretty presentation and everyone loved it. It is fun and easy to prepare. One pork chop per serving is not enough in my house!!! Believe it or not - it is a light meal. You might want to serve a salad with it since some were looking for a third chop! The pork really picks up the juices while it is cooking. This is a keeper and a really quick meal - thanks Ashbeth.

This is fast,easy and exquisite. I used three pork loin chops, each 3/4" thick. On top of them I added three sprigs of fresh Rosemary. The only other modification was some butter crumbled on top of the brown sugar. It is a perfect marriage of scent, texture, taste and satisfaction.
