Ingredients

• 2 tsp sweet paprika
• 2 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• Kosher salt and pepper
• 4 bone-in pork chops
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 onion, sliced
• 5 oz packaged mixed hearty greens
• 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
• 2- 15 oz cans small white beans, drained and rinsed
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Directions

1. Combine the paprika, cumin, coriander, 3/4 tsp salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Season the pork chops all over with 1 tbsp of the spice mixture; set aside the remaining spice mixture.

2. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes; remove to a plate. Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet. Stir in the onion and greens. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion starts softening and the greens wilt, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining spice mixture and stir to combine.

3. Add 2 cups water, the maple syrup, beans, tomato paste and vinegar to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, then nestle the pork chops in the mixture. Simmer until the pork is just cooked through, 5-7 minutes; remove to a plate. Increase the heat to medium high and simmer until the greens are tender and the sauce thickens, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with the pork chops.
