Author:
Yield: Serves 2
Ingredients
  • 1 cups red seedless grapes
  • 2 bone-in pork chops, about 8 ounces each
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
  • Kosher salt and freshly-ground black pepper
  • 1/2 bunch swiss chard, stems and leaves roughly chopped
  • 2-3 teaspoons sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon toasted almonds, roughly chopped
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a quarter-sheet pan with parchment paper
  2. Spread the grapes out on the sheet pan. Roast uncovered for 15 minutes.
  3. Rub the pork chops with 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil. Generously season with salt and pepper. Take the sheet pan out of the oven and make space on the pan for the pork chops. Return the pan to the oven for 10 minutes.
  4. Toss the chard stems with the remaining olive oil and a little salt in a small bowl. Add them to the pan and cook for 5 more minutes.
  5. Transfer the pork chops to plates to rest and add the chard leaves to the pan. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until dark green and slightly wilted.
  6. Transfer the roasted swiss chard and grapes to a large mixing bowl. Add the sherry vinegar and almonds and toss to coat. Serve with the pork chops.
Notes
The original recipe yields four servings; here I've halved it, as I'm usually cooking for two. If you'd like to cook four servings double everything and roast it on a half-sheet pan instead of a quarter.
