Mustard Pork Chops with Crispy Cabbage

For this dish, buy pork chops about 1/4 inch thick.

Serves 4 to 6

1/2

large head green cabbage , cut into 1-inch wedges (core left intact)

3

tablespoons unsalted butter , 2 tablespoons melted

 

Table salt and ground black pepper

6

thin bone-in pork chops (about 1 1/2 pounds), trimmed of excess fat

2

teaspoons vegetable oil

1

cup low-sodium chicken broth

1/4

cup heavy cream

2 1/2

tablespoons grainy mustard



1. Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 450 degrees. Place cabbage on baking sheet, drizzle with melted butter, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until cabbage is browned around edges, 20 to 25 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, pat pork chops dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil and remaining 1 tablespoon butter in large skillet over high heat until foaming subsides. Cook 3 chops until well browned on both sides, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer chops to serving plate and cover tightly with foil. Repeat with remaining chops.

3. Discard fat in pan. Add broth and bring to boil, scraping up browned bits with wooden spoon. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until thickened, 4 to 6 minutes. Add pork chops and accumulated juices to skillet. Add cream and simmer until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in mustard and season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over chops and serve with cabbage.

Terri,

I love cabbage and of course, it goes so well with pork!  I love to use thin strips of pork stirfried with soy and nothing more than some hot peppers and cabbage.  So delicious!  Great recipe!
