Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Pork chop:
1 double-cut pork chop (1 1/2-2 pounds)
1 tablespoon Diamond Crystal or 1 1/2 teaspoons Morton kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salad and assembly:
1 large egg yolk
1 garlic clove, finely grated
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon or horseradish mustard
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
8 cups torn red leaf lettuce (from about 1 head)
4 cups torn frisée (from about 1 head)
1/2 small celery root (celeriac), peeled, cut into matchsticks (about 2 cups)
1 apple, cut into matchsticks
2 ounces Pecorino, shaved
1/2 cup chopped smoked almonds
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Pork chop:
  • Pat pork chop dry with paper towels. Mix salt, pepper, and sugar in a small bowl; sprinkle all over pork. Place pork on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet so it's resting on its side with bone sticking upright and chill, uncovered, at least 8 hours and up to 1 day.
  • Let pork chop sit at room temperature at least 1 hour for even roasting.
  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high. Rub chop all over with oil and carefully place in skillet; reserve rack and baking sheet. Cook chop, turning every minute or so, until deeply browned on both sides, 5-8 minutes. Turn on its side and sear edges and fat cap until browned, about 3 minutes total. Transfer back to rack, place in oven, and roast until a thermometer inserted into the center of chop about 1" from bone registers 130°F, 25-35 minutes (use a probe thermometer if you've got one, or use an instant-read thermometer and check every few minutes after pork has been roasting 20 minutes). Transfer pork to a cutting board; let rest 15-20 minutes.
  • Salad and assembly:
  • While the pork is resting, whisk egg yolk, garlic, vinegar, mustard, and honey in a medium bowl. Gradually add 1/2 cup oil, whisking until dressing is emulsified (it should be the consistency of heavy cream). Season with kosher salt and pepper.
  • Toss lettuce, frisée, celery root, apple, Pecorino, and almonds in a large bowl; season with kosher salt and pepper. Add about three-quarters of dressing and toss to coat; add more dressing to taste and season with more kosher salt and pepper.
  • Use a thin-bladed knife to cut pork chop away from rib bone, then cut between bones to separate into 2 ribs (or don't, and greedily eat both bones in the kitchen before serving others, because you're the cook and you deserve it). Slice chop 1/2" thick, drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve with salad.

Categories     Bon Appétit     Pork Chop     Cranberry     Fall     Thyme     Garlic     Celery     Parsley     Dinner     Parmesan

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup dried unsweetened cranberries
3 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
2 (1 1/2"-thick) bone-in pork rib chops (about 1 pound each), patted dry
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
3 sprigs thyme
3 garlic cloves, smashed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 small shallot, finely chopped
6 large or 8 medium celery stalks, thinly sliced on a diagonal
1/2 cup parsley leaves with tender stems
1/4 cup chopped salted, dry-roasted almonds
1 ounce Parmesan, shaved
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine cranberries and vinegar in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Season pork generously with salt, then rub with 1 Tbsp. oil total. Heat a dry medium skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium. Cook pork chops, moving once or twice to hotter areas of skillet, until first side is deeply browned, 6-9 minutes. Turn pork chops and cook until second sides are browned, about 5 minutes. Working one at a time, set chops on fatty side with tongs to melt and brown fat cap, about 1 minute each. At this point an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each chop should register 135°F.
  • Add thyme, garlic, and butter to skillet and swirl to melt butter. Tilt skillet toward you so butter pools in the pan and spoon foaming butter over chops continuously until butter is browned, about 1 minute. Transfer pork chops, thyme, and garlic to a cutting board and let meat rest while you assemble the salad.
  • Combine shallot and a couple of pinches of salt in a large bowl. Pour vinegar from reserved cranberries into bowl. Whisking constantly, gradually add remaining 3 Tbsp. oil. Add cranberries, celery, parsley, almonds, Parmesan, and several pinches of salt; toss to combine.
  • Cut along bones to remove meat from pork chops; slice meat 1/2" thick. Transfer meat and bones to a platter along with garlic and thyme, then drizzle any accumulated juices left on cutting board over top. Serve with salad.
