PORK CHOPS AND ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 424°F On a rimmed baking sheet, toss carrots, parsnips, 2 Tbsp of the oil, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Roast for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tsp of remaining oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper, and cook until browned, 3 minutes per side.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven along with the vegetables, and cook until the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, 6 to 8 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine mustard, syrup, remaining 2 Tbsp oil and scallion. Serve with the pork and vegetable.

ROASTED PORK CHOPS AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Spray 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix oil, parsley, seasoned salt, thyme and pepper.
• Brush both sides of pork chops with about half of the oil mixture. In large bowl, mix rutabaga, potatoes, fennel and onions. Add remaining half of oil mixture; toss to coat. Arrange vegetables in pan.
• Roast vegetables 15 minutes. Place pork chops on vegetables. Roast 30 to 40 minutes longer or until pork chops are no longer pink in center and vegetables are tender.

STUFFED PORK CHOPS WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES AND SOFT POLENTA

Steps:

• For the polenta: Bring the milk and 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Season generously with salt. Slowly whisk in the polenta; when all of the polenta has been incorporated, reduce the heat to medium and immediately switch to stirring with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring frequently, until the polenta begins to pull away from the pan; add water if it becomes too thick.
• When the polenta is thoroughly cooked, it will look creamy and not feel gritty on your tongue. Remove the polenta from the heat and stir in the Parmesan, mascarpone and sage. Cover and keep warm.
• For the roasted vegetables: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
• Combine the Brussels sprouts and cauliflower florets in a large bowl. Add the olive oil and some crushed red pepper salt; stir to coat. Pour the vegetables onto the prepared baking sheet and spread in a single layer. Roast until tender and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes, stirring halfway through. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with pomegranate seeds.
• For the stuffed pork chops: Adjust the oven to 375 degrees F. Add the bacon to a skillet and cook over medium-high heat until almost crispy. Add the onions and sweat for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the apples and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes. Carefully add the calvados (it may flame) and cook until almost dry. Add the rosemary, raisins and salt to taste. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl, along with the breadcrumbs and the beaten egg; stir to combine.
• Sprinkle the pork chops with salt. Insert a paring knife into the curved side of each chop to make a deep pocket, about 2 inches wide. Stuff the pockets with the breadcrumb mixture.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and coat the pan with olive oil. Sear the pork chops until golden brown on all sides. Remove the chops to a baking sheet and place in the oven for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add sherry vinegar and maple syrup to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until reduced by half. (Keep an eye on the saucepan, as the mixture can burn quickly.)
• After 15 minutes in the oven, baste the chops all over with the maple-vinegar reduction. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.

SKILLET ROASTED PORK CHOPS WITH SPRING VEGETABLES AND MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil. Prepare an ice water bath. In batches by type, blanch the radishes, English peas and snow peas in the boiling water for 1 minute per batch. Transfer each batch to the ice water to stop the cooking process, then transfer to a colander to drain. Cut the snow peas into julienne strips. Transfer the blanched vegetables to a bowl and set aside.
• Heat a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Season the pork chops with the coriander, cumin and some salt and pepper.
• Add the oil to the pan and heat until smoking. Add the pork chops, reduce the heat to medium and cook until caramelized on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip the chops and cook until caramelized on the other side, another 3 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low and add the garlic, tarragon and 3 tablespoons of the butter. Cook, basting the pork with the butter (be careful not to burn the butter, though it will brown lightly), until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees F for medium, about 4 minutes. Transfer the chops to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you make the sauce and finish the vegetables.
• Drain off half of the butter, add the leeks and saute until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the white wine and cook, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the chicken stock and mustard and cook for a few minutes until slightly reduced. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to form a pan sauce and season with the champagne vinegar. Add the reserved vegetables to warm in the sauce while it simmers to reduce, about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper as necessary.
• Serve the vegetables and sauce with the pork and garnish with dill.
