Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic-pepper blend
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 4 (6 to 8-oz.) bone-in pork loin chops (3/4 inch thick)
  • 1 small butternut squash (about 2 lb.), peeled, seeded and cut into 1/2 to 1-inch pieces (about 3 cups)
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 medium red onion, cut into 1/2-inch wedges

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Spray 15x10-inch baking pan with sides with nonstick cooking spray. In large bowl, combine oil, sage, marjoram, garlic-pepper blend and seasoned salt; mix well. Brush some of mixture over both sides of pork chops. Place pork chops in corners of sprayed pan.
  • 2
    Add squash, bell pepper and onion to remaining mixture in bowl; toss to coat. Arrange vegetables in pan with pork chops.
  • 3
    Bake at 425°F. for 35 to 40 minutes or until pork chops are no longer pink in center and squash is tender, turning chops and stirring vegetables once.

  • Butternut squash has a smooth, creamy-tan peel and a large peanut shape. Its bright, yellow-orange flesh is moist and sweet.
  • In place of butternut squash, use your favorite sweet winter squash; try acorn, buttercup or delicata. Sweet potatoes work well, too. Cut the squash or sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces and measure 3 cups.
  • Applesauce is always nice with pork; or try sliced apples sautéed in a bit of butter until tender. Serve crusty rolls as a bread accompaniment.
