Presto, Pork!

Found in Parents Magazine

10 oz. frozen sweet-potato fries
2 6 0z. boneless pork-loin chops
12 oz. brussel sprouts
1/4 cup unsalted chicken broth
2 tsp. lemon juice
2 Tbs. maple syrup
4 tsp. olive oil, divided
2 Tbs. all-purpose flour
Salt and Pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees farenheit. Spread fries in a 15" x 10" x 1" pan. Bake 18 minutes, or according to the package directions. Meanwhile, cut pork in half horizontally and pound to make four 1/4" thick slices.

Heat 3 tsp. oil in a large skillet over high heat. Then combine flour with pinches of salt and pepper in shallow dish. Coat pork and add to skillet. Cook until browned, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Cut sprouts into thin ribbons. When pork is done, place on a platter and cover. Add broth and lemon juice to hot pan. Swirl around then pour over pork.

Put sprouts and 1 tsp. oil in pan. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 2 minutes. Stir in maple syrup and saute until crisp-tender. Serves 4.
