Ingredients

  • 454-g bag parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-in. pieces

  • 1 Yukon Gold potato, peeled and cut into 1-in. pieces

  • 1/4 cup 35% cream

  • 1/2 tsp salt, divided

  • 4 bone-in pork chops

  • 1 tsp canola oil

  • 1 gala apple, sliced into thin wedges

  • 1/4 cup bourbon, (or apple juice)

  • 2 tbsp cold butter, cubed

Instructions

  • BOIL parsnips and potato in a pot of water until tender, 15 min. Drain and press through a ricer back into pot. Heat over medium-low, stir in cream and 1/4 tsp salt until parsnip mixture is warmed through. Remove from heat and keep warm.

  • SPRINKLE pork chops with remaining 1/4 tsp salt. Season with fresh pepper. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium. Add oil, then chops. Cook 4 to 5 min per side. Push pork to side of pan, then add apple slices. Cook until tender and golden brown, about 3 min. Transfer pork and apple to a plate and cover with foil. Add bourbon to hot pan and cook until reduced by half, 3 min. Remove from heat and whisk in butter, 1 cube at a time, until combined. Drizzle over pork.
