PORK AMANDINE WITH ALMOND MILK SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the pork with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add 4 of the pork cutlets and brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and continue cooking, about 1 minute more. Remove the pork from the skillet and transfer to a plate. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and repeat with the remaining 4 cutlets. Transfer to the plate and set aside.
• Add the butter and almonds to the skillet, stirring until both are browned but not burnt. Remove the almonds to a separate plate.
• Add the haricot verts, almond milk, sour cream, Worcestershire and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the skillet. Cook until the beans are tender and cooked through and the mixture is starting to thicken, about 6 minutes. Stir in the parsley and reserved almonds.
• Divide the haricot verts evenly among 4 plates and spoon some sauce over them. Top with 2 cutlets per plate and sprinkle with parsley.

ALMOND PORK

Steps:

• With a meat mallet, pound the tenderloin slices to 1/4-inch thick. Combine tarragon and garlic powder in a small bowl, and sprinkle the mixture over the cutlets. Rub the seasoning into the meat, cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour to blend the flavors.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat until the foam disappears. Brown half of the tenderloin pieces in the butter, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Do not crowd pan. Repeat with the remainder of the pork pieces and 1 more tablespoon of butter. Set the pork pieces aside on a warm platter.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the skillet over medium heat; stir in the flour until smooth and the mixture starts to fry. Gradually whisk in wine, stirring constantly until the flour mixture and wine are blended; stir in chicken bouillon granules and Dijon mustard. Allow the sauce to boil for 1 minute; whisk in the cream. Bring the mixture almost to the boiling point, and stir in the almonds and green onions. Pour sauce over the pork, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.

• Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat and add about 1/2 inch of the oil. When the oil is hot, brown the chops on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove them to a baking sheet fitted with a wire rack and cook in the oven until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.
• To make the apples: Pour the fat out of the skillet, then wipe the skillet and set over medium heat. Melt the butter. Add the shallots, apples and rosemary, and toss until the apples begin to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the sugar, orange juice, stock, and some salt and pepper, and bring to a simmer. Cook just until the sauce comes together, about 15 minutes. Remove the pork chops from the oven and serve with the apples.
