Ingredients
- 4, about 1 1/2 lb total Boneless pork chops, about 1 inch thick
- 3/4 lb Cauliflower florets
- 1 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup Milk
- 1/2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)
- Cut the cauliflower into florets about 1 inch wide so they cook evenly.
- Put the cauliflower in a saucepan and add enough water to cover it by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to maintain a steady simmer for 12–15 minutes, until a fork slides easily into the stems.
- Drain the cauliflower very well in a colander and return it to the warm saucepan. Add the butter and milk, then mash with a potato masher until mostly smooth; cover to keep warm.
- Pat the pork chops dry and season both sides with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for about 1 minute, until it shimmers. Add the chops and cook for 4–5 minutes per side, until browned and a thermometer reads 145°F in the center.
- Transfer the chops to a plate and rest for 3 minutes so the juices settle. Serve with the warm cauliflower mash.
