15 mins
Easy
A meal doesn’t need to be complex to be deeply satisfying. This simple, high-protein dinner pairs juicy, tender pork with crisp, garden-fresh broccoli for a clean, nourishing end to your day.
This dish features a pan-seared, bone-in pork chop seasoned with sea salt and garlic, served alongside lightly steamed broccoli florets. It is a perfect, low-carb dinner that comes together in under 30 minutes.
Let your pork chops rest for at least 5 minutes after cooking. This keeps the juices inside the meat rather than on the cutting board, ensuring every bite stays tender.
