Ingredients

• 2 Sheets heavy-duty aluminum foil
• 2 1 1/4 Inch thick pork chops
• 2 Large sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced
• 2 Slices yellow onion
• 2 Whole apples, peeled and sliced
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) olive oil
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) kosher salt
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) black pepper, ground
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) dried thyme
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) dried rosemary
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) cinnamon
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) apple cider vinegar

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for a more even cook and enhanced flavors.
2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, and apple cider vinegar to create a marinade.
3. Rub the marinade evenly over both sides of the pork chops. Let them marinate while you prepare the other ingredients.
4. Lay out two sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil, each large enough to hold half of the ingredients.
5. Divide the sweet potato slices evenly between the two sheets, creating a base layer.
6. Place a pork chop on top of the sweet potatoes on each sheet.
7. Top each pork chop with a slice of onion and half of the apple slices. Sprinkle the apples with cinnamon for added warmth and aroma.
8. Fold up and seal each foil packet tightly to trap the steam inside.
9. Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and the pork chops are cooked through.
10. Carefully open the foil packets, being cautious of the hot steam, and serve immediately. Enjoy the savory and sweet flavors of this delightful dish!
