Cola Chops and Oven Roasted Potatoes


The chops were very good, although a bit dry. The next time I make this recipe, I think I would cook them longer at a lower temperature. The ketchup/cola mixture tastes like a sweet BBQ sauce. The potatoes were awesome, although I had to finish them in the microwave. 45 minutes was not quite enough time for the bigger chunks to cook. A pretty good meal without a lot of work though!
Cola Chops:
adapted from allrecipes.com
3 boneless pork sirloin chops
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup cola
3 Tbsp. brown sugar
Place the pork chops into a baking dish. Mix together the ketchup and cola until well blended. Pour mixture over the chops, covering them completely. Sprinkle 1 Tbsp. brown sugar over the top of each chop. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
Oven Roasted Potatoes:
from allrecipes.com
4 baking potatoes (I used red potatoes)
2 Tbsp. butter, melted
2 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
Peel potatoes and cut into large chunks. (I left the skin on mine) Place in a shallow 2 quart baking pan. Pour butter over and toss until well coated. Sprinkle with paprika, salt and pepper. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes until potatoes are tender.
