Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic-pepper blend
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 boneless pork loin chops, 1/2 inch thick (about 1 lb)
  • 1 cup ready-to-eat baby-cut carrots
  • 4 small red potatoes, cut in half
  • 1 onion, cut into thin wedges
  • 1 small yellow summer squash, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil

Steps

    In very small bowl, mix salt and garlic-pepper blend. Sprinkle half of seasoning mixture over pork. In 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops in oil about 4 minutes, turning once, just until browned.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Zucchini can be substituted for the yellow squash. Since it is cooked for a short length of time, it will maintain its bright green color.
