Crock Pot Pork Chop & Roasted Green Beans

Crock Pot Pork Chops & Roasted Green Beans

I love cooking with my crock pot! The majority of the ingredients get thrown into a one pot meal, which makes for easy clean up. Plus, the house gets filled with the aroma of yummy food cooking all day long. We had some pork chops in the freezer and green beans in the refrigerator so we decided to make a crock pot pork chop with roasted green beans.

Ingredients:

• 6 pork chops
• 1 cup of flour
• 1 can of chicken and rice soup
• 3 tsp dry mustard
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp Salt 
• 1/2 tbsp fresh ground black pepper 
• 2 tbsp of ground fresh chili paste (or to desire of spiciness)
• Olive oil

Directions:

• Combine flour, salt, dry mustard, and garlic.
• Coat pork chops in the mix and brown in a skillet with a little bit of olive oil on medium-high heat. About 4-5 minutes on each side.
• Place pork chops, ground fresh chili paste, and chicken and rice soup into the crock pot.
• Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.

For the roasted green beans:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Line baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place green beans, garlic, salt and pepper in sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Toss to evenly coat.
• Spread green beans out in a single layer and place in oven.

• Remove from oven and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

Roasted Green Beans

This is really a simply, yet delicious meal to create. The pork was very tender and juicy with a nice kick while the roasted green beans were crispy. I served them with jasmine brown rice, but they would go well with really anything or just on their own together. I hope you give these recipes a try and let me know how they turn out!

Enjoy!
