GARLICKY PORK CHOPS AND BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet with a lid over medium high heat. Cook the pork chops for about 5 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through. Transfer them to a plate.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the broccoli and sauté for 1 minute. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 more minute, until you can smell the garlic. Add the Worcestershire Sauce and 1/4 cup water, cover the pan and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes until the broccoli is just tender.

PORK CHOPS WITH GARLICKY BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler to high. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
• Toss broccoli with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil on the prepared pan and spread in an even layer. Broil, stirring once, until charred in spots, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan in a shallow dish. Place flour in another shallow dish and egg in a third shallow dish. Sprinkle pork with 1/4 teaspoon salt, then dredge in the flour, shaking off excess; dip in the egg, letting excess drip off; and coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 145 degrees F, about 6 minutes total. (If the pork is browning too quickly, reduce heat to medium.) Transfer to a plate and drizzle with lemon juice. Tent with foil.
• Wipe the pan clean. Add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, garlic and crushed red pepper and cook over low heat, stirring, until the garlic is sizzling, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vinegar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Drizzle over the reserved broccoli and toss to coat. Serve the pork and broccoli with more Parmesan and thyme, if desired.

SHEET PAN PORK WITH BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Place the pork on a rimmed baking sheet; season generously with salt and pepper. Mix 1 tablespoon olive oil, the grated garlic, paprika, oregano and 1 teaspoon Peppadew brine in a bowl; rub all over the pork and set aside 5 minutes. Broil the pork until lightly browned, about 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the broccoli, chickpeas, Peppadews, whole garlic cloves, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Remove the pork from the oven and flip. Spread the broccoli mixture around the pork. Continue broiling until a thermometer inserted into the pork registers 145 degrees F and the broccoli is lightly charred, 6 to 9 more minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
• Squeeze the broiled garlic cloves from their skins; finely chop. Combine the garlic with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 teaspoons Peppadew brine, the parsley, lemon zest and juice and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
