Hoisin-Glazed Pork Chops with Sesame Slaw Salad

Serves 2

Hoisin-Glazed Pork Chops

with Sesame Slaw Salad

One of our favorite ways to add tons of flavor to any protein in mere minutes? Whipping up a delectable glaze. Here, we blend savory-sweet hoisin sauce with sesame oil, vinegar, garlic, and scallions, then spoon the mixture over pork chops just before serving. It’s paired with a crunchy, savory sesame slaw-style salad, and garnished with a zippy shower of crisp scallion greens. Now THAT’S what we call a winning dinner idea!

Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Wash and dry produce.

    Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Peel and mince or grate garlic. Trim and discard root end from lettuce; roughly chop leaves.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine cabbage and carrot mix, half the scallion greens, half the dressing (you’ll use the rest later), and ¼ tsp sugar (½ tsp for 4 servings); toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Pat pork* dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper.

    Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side.

    Turn off heat; transfer to a cutting board and tent with foil to keep warm. Wipe out pan and let cool slightly.

  4. 4

    Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-low heat. Add garlic and scallion whites; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

    Stir in ¼ cup water (1⁄3 cup for 4 servings), hoisin, vinegar, and half the sesame oil (all for 4). Bring to a simmer; cook until sauce has slightly thickened, 2-4 minutes. Season lightly with pepper.

  5. 5

    Add lettuce and remaining dressing to bowl with cabbage and carrot mixture; toss to combine.

  6. 6

    Slice pork crosswise.

    Divide pork and salad between plates. Spoon pan sauce over top; garnish with remaining scallion greens and serve.

    Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.
