One Pan Pork Chop with Endive
Recipe for two people:
Ingredients:
1 large bone in pork chop
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon avocado oil or another neutral cooking oil
3 cloves of garlic - chopped
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons Mike’s hot honey - or regular honey
3 endives cut in half
3/4 cup chicken broth
Instructions:
Season both sides of the pork chop with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper.
Heat a cast iron skillet or any nonstick pan on medium high heat and add in the avocado oil. Allow the pan to get pretty hot, 3-4 minutes, before adding the pork chop. Sear each side on high heat for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown with a nice crust.
Remove the pork chop for the pan and set aside. There should be enough oil in the pan still along with some fat from the pork chop. Season the 6 halves of endive with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and place them cut side down into the pan. Sear on medium heat for 5-6 minutes or until it gets a golden brown crust. Then take them out and set aside.
Next add in a little more avocado oil or olive oil if the pan looks thirsty. Just about a teaspoon or 2!
Add in the chopped garlic, mustard and honey. Stir around on medium heat for 1 minute and then deglaze the pan with white wine. Cook the wine for 3 minutes and then add the chicken broth.
Add the pork chop and the endive cut side facing up back into the pan with the sauce. Saute on medium heat for another 15 minutes or until the internal temperature of the pork is 150 degrees.
Top with a little Italian parsley for color and freshness!
Enjoy with love + salt,
