Recipe: (Keto) Garlic Butter Pork Chops

April 1, 2019 · FoodHussy · 1 Comment

Recently I was out of town and my dog sitter was here and had some ingredients from one of those meal-delivery companies in the fridge that she forgot to take with her. She told me to just keep them and enjoy. But I had no instructions – just a bag of ingredients – so let’s figure it out!!! 
I had pork chops, Swiss chard, grape tomatoes, garlic, butter, pine nuts and Parmesan cheese. So what should I make – I just thought well – let’s put it all together and figure it out. I was hungry and didn’t want to monkey around for a long time either – so here we go!

I seared the chop first and then added in the garlic, butter and shallot – getting those flavors in right off the bat – giving them time to dig into the pork chop like I was going to. Then you finish with the chard and tomatoes – they just need a couple of minutes to soften.

If you don’t have – or are afraid of Swiss chard (haha) – you can use spinach or kale too. I like Swiss chard though – you just tear the leaves off the tough stem and add them in. Spinach wilts really quickly and almost disintegrates – whereas chard holds up a little more.

This pork chop came out extremely juicy and delicious – and you’ll notice that PERFECT blush of pink! I’m pretty good with cooking pork but I still always grab the thermometer and temp it to 145. I’ll actually take it off at 140 – because it will continue to cook a bit.
