Lemon-Garlic Pan-Seared Pork Chops with Crispy Brussels Sprouts
Savor the bright tanginess of lemon and the savory depth of garlic as they elevate perfectly pan-seared pork chops, complemented by crispy, roasted Brussels sprouts. This dish delivers a satisfying balance of lean protein and fresh vegetables with a hint of spice and a drizzle of olive oil for extra richness.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Pork Loin Chop (boneless)
1 cup Brussels Sprouts
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
2 Garlic cloves
Salt and Pepper to taste
Pinch Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
PREPARATION
Pat the pork chop dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes if desired.
Zest the lemon and then squeeze the juice from half the lemon; mince the garlic cloves finely.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the pork chop and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms and the internal temperature reaches around 145°F.
Remove the pork chop from the skillet and let it rest. In the same pan, add the minced garlic and lemon zest, stirring briefly to infuse the oil.
Toss the Brussels sprouts in the pan with the garlic mixture, cooking them until they are tender and slightly crispy on the edges, about 5-7 minutes. Squeeze a little lemon juice over them as they finish cooking.
Plate the pork chop alongside the roasted Brussels sprouts and serve with a final drizzle of lemon-infused olive oil if desired.
