4 servings
Servings4
2 pork chops (1 to 2 inches thick)
homemade rosemary salt
black pepper
avocado oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 shallot (sliced in half)
1 clove garlic (crushed, peel on)
fresh herbs (unspecified)
1

Select pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick, preferably 1 and 1/4 to 2 inches thick.

2

Season the pork chops with homemade rosemary salt and finely ground black pepper, ensuring to season both sides.

3

Preheat a stainless steel pan over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes before adding oil.

4

Add a little avocado oil to the pan and wait 20 seconds before placing the pork chops in, fat cap side down.

5

Sear the fat cap for about 2 minutes until it is golden brown and rendered, holding the chops with tongs if necessary.

6

Lay the pork chops flat in the pan and apply gentle pressure to ensure good contact with the pan; sear for about 4 minutes.

7

Flip the pork chops and sear for 1 minute on the other side before adding the halved shallot and crushed garlic.

8

Reduce the heat to low and add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the pan, allowing it to foam before basting the pork chops.

9

Baste the pork chops with the foamy butter, concentrating on the thickest part of the meat to ensure even cooking.

10

Add fresh herbs in the last 30 seconds of cooking.
