Crispy pork with brown butter and sage

You can call this schnitzel, scallopini, or even tonkatsu; I call it easy, and delicious. Just add mashed potatoes and a salad and you've got a quick weeknight dinner. To make things even easier, start with thin-cut pork chops.

You can call this schnitzel, scallopini, or even tonkatsu; I call it easy, and delicious. Just add mashed potatoes and a salad and you've got a quick weeknight dinner. To make things even easier, start with thin-cut pork chops.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Sandwich the chops between two sheets of cling film. Use a heavy pot or rolling pin to flatten them. If you're starting with thin-cut chops, you'll want to pound them until they're about half their original thickness. Season the chops lightly with salt and pepper.
- 2
Separate the flour and panko into separate dredging stations. For the eggs, whisk them in a large bowl with a few tbsp water. Season all three dredges lightly with salt and pepper.
- 3
Add a large splash of veg oil to a large nonstick pan on medium heat. Coat the chops first in the flour, then the eggs, then the panko. Shake off any excess dredge and fry the chops in batches for 2 minutes per side. Remove the chops to a wire rack.
- 4
Wipe the pan clean with some paper towel. Add the butter and let cook until the butter's melted, browned, and has slowed foaming. Add the sage leaves and fry for 1 minute until they're crisp. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and a dash of salt and pepper. Plate the chops, then pour over the sauce.

This is another one of those 'not so much a recipe, but an assembly of delicious things' kind of dishes. Which I love because you get great results with minimal effort. Only two components actually require cooking (the pork and the apple). You only need one frying pan (less cleanup, yay!). And the dish is done in 15 minutes, so you can get to eating asap. And you'll probably want to get eating asap, because it's really delicious. Seriously. Crispy pork, sweet apple, tart balsamic, and funky cheese...my family devoured it in no time. Robert Gonzal -

Crispy pork belly with chimichurri Crispy pork belly with chimichurri
Most recipes recommend using the hi-low method for roasts, where the meat is given an initial short blast of high heat and then turned down to low for the remainder of the cooking. I always found it a little problematic, especially if I had sides in the oven also (such as roast potatoes) which always seemed to throw off the timing. I've since switched to the low-hi method, which is the exact opposite, and allows me to leave the crisping of the meat or skin until the very end. This works especially well with pork belly, which is very forgiving when it comes to cooking time due to its high fat content. Robert Gonzal -

Brown butter and sage linguine with chicken Brown butter and sage linguine with chicken
Some combinations just work, like apples and pork, chocolate and wine, and, in this case, brown butter and sage. Makes a nice alternative when you don't want either tomatoes or cream in your pasta. A little chicken breast gives the dish some heft, while a squirt of lemon livens the party. Robert Gonzal
