Preparation

Peel, then cut sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces.
Combine sweet potatoes, 2 tsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) in a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Simmer uncovered until fork-tender, 10-12 min.
Drain, then mash 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter into sweet potatoes until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, trim snap peas.
Transfer snap peas to one side of an unlined baking sheet. Toss with 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Thinly slice mushrooms.

Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. Season with salt and half the Montreal Spice Blend (use all for 4 ppl).
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (use same for 4 ppl), then pork. Sear until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side.
Transfer pork to the baking sheet, next to snap peas.
Roast in the top of the oven, until snap peas tender and pork is cooked through, 8-10 min.**

Meanwhile, return the same pan to medium.
Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl the pan to melt.
Add mushrooms and shallots. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened slightly, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper.
Sprinkle Cream Sauce Spice Blend over the pan. Cook, stirring constantly, until combined, 30 sec.

Add broth concentrate to the pan with mushrooms. Gradually stir in 1/2 cup (3/4 cup) water until combined.
Bring to a simmer on medium-high.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 2-3 min.
While sauce simmers, add sour cream to a small bowl. Whisk in 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) sauce from the pan until smooth.
Remove from heat, then whisk in sour cream mixture until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
