For this pork chop recipe, the target temperature for the meat might be lower than what you're used to. That's because we believe that when you invest in delicious, humanely raised pork, you deserve to enjoy it at a juicy, tender medium-rare.

Provided by Claire Saffitz

Categories     Bon Appétit     Pork     Pork Chop     Apple     Fall     Winter     Dinner     Lettuce     Salad     Almond     Wheat/Gluten-Free

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.

APPLE AND CELERY SALAD (WW)



Apple and Celery Salad (Ww) image

This is a good way to use up herbs in the garden -- both tarragon and chives grow like weeds in my garden -- along with parsley, so this is a delicious way to use them which we enjoyed. And only one point/serving. With the leftover salad (if there is any) it's good tossed with tuna or leftover chicken for lunch the next day - increasing the points to about 4 or 5/serving -- not bad -point-wise for lunch!

WILD ARUGULA, CELERY AND APPLE SALAD WITH ANCHOVY DRESSING



Wild Arugula, Celery and Apple Salad With Anchovy Dressing image

The dressing in this salad is inspired by a much more robust dressing in Jennifer McLagan's wonderful new cookbook, "Bitter." I have reduced the anchovies significantly, not because I don't adore anchovies, but to reduce the sodium levels, which would be too high if an entire can were used. The salad presents a delicious play of bitter, pungent, sweet and salty flavors.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 anchovy fillets
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large garlic clove, green germ removed, minced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Freshly ground pepper
4 cups arugula, preferably feathery wild arugula, stemmed
2 cups thinly sliced celery, from the inner stalks of the bunch
2 tablespoons chopped celery leaves
1 tart apple, such as a Pink Lady or Granny Smith, thinly sliced and tossed with 2 teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make dressing. Rinse anchovies briefly and chop. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over low heat in a small skillet and add anchovies and garlic. Stir until garlic is fragrant and just beginning to color and anchovies have broken down into smaller bits. Transfer to a mortar and pestle. Use the pestle to grind mixture into a paste. Add lemon juice or vinegar to the still-hot pan and stir to deglaze bottom of pan, then transfer to mortar and pestle. Add mustard. Work together, then slowly add olive oil, one tablespoon at a time, working each tablespoon into anchovy mixture before adding the next. Season to taste with freshly ground pepper.
  • In a salad bowl, toss together arugula, celery and celery leaves, and apple slices. Add dressing, toss until coated, and serve.
