Pork Chops with Rice and Yams infused with Pear Juice


So I must say I found this dish delicious. And thankfully it was very easy.

Ingredients:
Pork chops (enough for people serving)
1 or 2 Yams/Sweet Potatoes
1 or 2 Onions (I used the medium sized yellow onion)
1/2 cup to 1 cup rice (again dependent on the number of people serving)
1 garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon fresh marjoram
1 Tablespoon fresh basil
salt and pepper
3/4 cup pear nectar (I find this in the Mexican food isle at my store)
1/4 cup water
Butter

In a casserole dish place to one side chopped up yams, to it's side place chopped up onion (I like these to be good sized pieces), to its side line the rice then place the pork chops to the side of the rice. Top the chops with salt and pepper and garlic. Sprinkle herbs all over. Top each location with a bit of butter. Pour in the pear juice and water. Cover with aluminum foil and place in a heated 350* F. oven for 50-60 minutes or until everything is cooked to your tastes.
