Pork Roast with Apples and Sweet Potatoes
A seasonal dinner in a single pan – doesn’t get better than that! Everyday Food editor Sarah Carey shows you how to make this easy meal.
- Total Time 45 minutes
- Yield Serves 6
Ingredients
- 4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
- 1 pork roast (2 1/2 pounds), tied at 1-inch intervals
- Salt and pepper
- 3 Gala apples, quartered
- 2 sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Coat a heavy-bottomed metal roasting pan with 2 teaspoons oil. Place pork in center and season with salt and pepper. Roast until top is golden, about 15 minutes.
-
Toss apples and sweet potatoes with remaining 2 teaspoons oil and add to pan, arranging around pork. Return to oven and roast until apples and sweet potatoes are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted in center of pork reads 140 degrees, about 20 minutes.
-
Remove pork, apples, and sweet potatoes from pan. Allow meat to rest 10 minutes before slicing. To make the sauce, whisk flour into pan drippings over medium heat, then slowly whisk in chicken broth and cook until thickened.

Russell's Thursday Dinner
Nutritious and Delicious!
Don't use this recipe - it took twice as long to cook as specified in the instructions. When it finally was cooked, the potatoes and apples were greasy.
Don't believe this recipe - it takes twice as long as specified to cook this dish properly. It took so long that I gave up and had leftovers for dinner
