Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F and wash and dry all produce. Peel, then cut the sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. Combine the sweet potatoes, 1 tsp salt (dbl for 4 ppl) and enough water to cover (approximately 1-2 inches) in a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Simmer, uncovered, until sweet potatoes are fork-tender, 10-12 min.
While the sweet potatoes cook, core, then cut the pepper into 1/2-inch strips. Trim green beans. Combine the breadcrumbs and Parmesan in a shallow dish. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Carefully slice each pork chop through the centre, parallel to the board. Cut straight through to the other end. (NOTE: You will have 4 pork pieces for 2 ppl and 8 pieces for 4 ppl.)
Add peppers, green beans and 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Roast in the middle of the oven, until veggies are tender-crisp, 13-15 min.
While the veggies roast, coat the pork all over with thin layer of mayo. Working with one piece of pork at a time, firmly press both sides into breadcrumb mixture to coat completely. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil, then the pork. Pan-fry, until golden-brown and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.** (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook pork in 2 batches for 4 ppl, using 1 tbsp oil for each batch!) Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
When sweet potatoes are fork-tender, drain and return to same pot. Using a fork or potato masher, mash 1 1/2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl) into potatoes until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Divide the sweet potato mash, Parmesan crusted pork and roasted veggies between plates.
