Pork Chop With Risotto Recipe

Pork Chop Preparation

1. Season the pork chop on both sides with salt and black pepper. 2. In a skillet, heat olive oil or butter over medium-high heat. 3. Once hot, add the pork chop and cook until golden brown on each side, approximately 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness. 4. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.

Risotto Preparation

1. In a separate pan, heat a tablespoon of olive oil or butter. 2. Add finely chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent. 3. Stir in the Arborio rice until it is well-coated with the oil and has a slight toasty aroma. 4. Gradually add chicken or vegetable broth, a little at a time, stirring constantly until the rice is cooked al dente and has a creamy texture. This should take about 18-20 minutes. 5. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and fully incorporated into the risotto. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
