Pork Chops with Sage Cream

Quick, easy, and delicious, pork and sage is a classic combination. I like to serve this with a few steamed green beans that I dip in any extra sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound pork chops 8 ounces each
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter or butter flavored coconut oil for dairy-free
  • 1/4 cup fresh sage leaves
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 1 teaspoon gelatin
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream or coconut cream for dairy-free
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  • Cook the pork chops in your favorite way, I like to cook them sous vide at 140ºF for 1 hour. You can also pan sear or broil them.
  • With about 10 minutes of cooking time left, prepare the sauce. Melt the butter in a pan over medium high heat. Add the sage leaves and cook for about 5 minutes, or until crispy and the butter is beginning to brown.
  • Transfer sage leaves to a paper towel lined plate and set aside.
  • Add the chicken stock, cream, and gelatin to the pan. Stir until evenly combined and simmer until reduced by half and thickened, about 5 more minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Off heat, stir in the lemon juice.
  • Serve the pork sliced, with sauce over top and fried sage leaves.
