We can't think of a more festive way to start the week than these juicy pork chops with colorful slaw! The slaw provides a nice contrast to the richness of the meat and will only get better as leftovers!
Smarts: Want to get ahead on dinner? Both the pork chops and the slaw will be tastier if seasoned the night before you eat them!

Make
- Preheat the oven to 425F (218C).
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and then sear pork chops for 2 to 3 minutes per side over high heat until they are browned and crisp.
- Place pork chops into the oven and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, until pork is firm to the the touch (or cooked to at least 145F or 62C degrees).
- Remove pork chops from the pan and allow to rest for five minutes before slicing.
- While the pork chops are resting pour off excess fat from the pan and add black beans, stir and allow to heat through in the pork juices.
- Let people serve themselves the desired amount of pork, slaw, and beans. Enjoy!
