Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in pork loin chops, 1/2 inch thick (about 1 3/4 lb)
  • 1 medium unpeeled buttercup squash, cut into 4 wedges
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup real maple or maple-flavored syrup
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Spray 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray. Place pork chops and squash in pan. Sprinkle squash and both sides of pork chops with seasoned salt, sage and garlic powder; rub with fingers to distribute evenly.
  • 2
    In small bowl, mix maple syrup and butter. Brush about half of mixture over pork and squash. Cover pan with foil.
  • 3
    Bake 40 minutes. Turn pork chops over. Brush pork and squash with maple mixture. Bake uncovered 10 to 15 minutes longer or until pork is no longer pink and squash is tender.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    In place of the buttercup squash, you could use butternut or acorn squash.
  • tip 2
    Buttercup squash is green and shaped like a turban. Butternut squash is yellow and shaped like a peanut. Both are sweet and mild with firm yellow flesh.
