Ingredients
- 4 bone-in smoked pork chops (about 1 3/4 lb)
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1 can (15.8 oz) black-eyed peas, drained, rinsed
- 1/2 lb fresh green beans, ends trimmed, beans cut in half crosswise
Instructions
-
Step1Heat oven to 450°F. Cut 4 (18x12-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil. Place 1 pork chop on center of each sheet of foil.
-
Step2In 1-cup microwavable measuring cup, mix bourbon, brown sugar, mustard and ground red pepper. Microwave uncovered on High 2 to 3 minutes or until mixture has reduced to about 3 tablespoons. Brush mixture evenly over pork.
-
Step3In medium microwavable bowl, microwave butter and garlic uncovered on High 30 to 45 seconds or until butter is melted. Add peas; toss. Stir in green beans. Divide pea-bean mixture evenly on top of each pork chop.
-
Step4Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal. Place packets in ungreased 15x10x1-inch pan.
-
Step5Bake about 30 minutes or until pork chops are hot and green beans are crisp-tender. To serve, cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil to allow steam to escape. Carefully transfer pork chops, vegetables and cooking liquid to individual dinner plates.
