Cumin Pork Chops With Honey Carrots Recipes

CUMIN PORK CHOPS WITH HONEY CARROTS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together half the oil, half the honey, the lemon zest and juice, and the cumin seeds. Add the pork chops and ensure they are well coated. Heat a large frying pan and add the chops along with the glaze. Cook for 5-7 mins on each side, basting with the glaze every so often. Remove from the pan, wrap in foil and leave to rest.
• Meanwhile, boil the carrots until just tender, about 10 mins. Mix together the remaining oil and honey, the cinnamon and some seasoning. Add this to the pan you've just cooked the pork in, along with the carrots. Toss to coat, heat through, then serve the carrots alongside the chops with a dollop of natural yogurt.

HONEY-GLAZED PORK CHOPS WITH SHAVED CARROT AND MINT SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high and position a rack in the highest position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and coat with nonstick spray.
• Season the pork chops with salt. Combine the honey, adobo sauce, fish sauce, cayenne and a very large pinch of salt in a small bowl. Brush 1 teaspoon on one side of the pork chops then transfer to the prepared baking sheet sauce-side down. Brush the top of each chop with 1 tablespoon sauce and season with salt. Broil until the chops are cooked through and the sauce on the top starts to caramelize and take on a charred color, about 10 minutes. Let the chops rest until ready to serve.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon of the coconut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the carrots and a large pinch of salt. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the carrots start to wilt but still have some structure, about 5 minutes (up to 7 minutes for any thicker carrots). Remove to a heatproof bowl, along with any juices from the skillet. Toss with the juice of half a lime; season with salt, if necessary.
• Pour the juices from the pork chops into the same skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Heat until combined and slightly thickened, 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the juice of 1 lime; season with salt, if necessary. Toss the dressing with the greens and mint in a large bowl and divide among 4 plates, then top with the carrot salad. Finally, slice the pork chops, divide among the salads and top with the peanuts.

QUICK AND EASY HONEY-GARLIC PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Season pork chops with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
• Heat oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sear pork chops until golden brown and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
• Reduce heat to medium and melt butter in the pan juices, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add honey, water, and vinegar. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally until sauce has reduced down and slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Return pork back to the skillet and baste generously with the sauce.
• Transfer skillet under the broiler and broil until edges of pork chops are slightly charred, 1 to 2 minutes.
