Pork Chops with Miso Mushrooms

Pork chops with miso mushrooms in a creamy sauce with cilantro and green onions in a skillet
  • Serves:  2
  • Prep Time:  10 min
  • Cook Time:  15 min

Ingredients

  • 2 (½-inch thick) bone-in pork chops
  • 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 ½ tablespoons red miso paste
  • 1 garlic clove, grated
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions

Method

  1. Pat the pork chops dry and season all over with 1 teaspoon of the salt. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Once the oil is glistening, add the pork and cook undisturbed until browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F on an instant-read thermometer, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer the pork to a plate and let the skillet cool slightly.
  2. Heat the skillet over medium heat and add the mushrooms in a single layer. Season with the remaining ½ teaspoon salt and cook undisturbed until they begin to brown, about 4 minutes. 
  3. Stir in the butter, miso paste, garlic, and ginger until coated. Cook, stirring often, until mushrooms are tender, about 3 minutes more. Stir in the heavy cream, cilantro and green onions until combined.
  4. Serve the pork topped with the mushroom sauce.
