  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Peel, trim, and cut carrot into 1/4" slices on an angle.

    Stem thyme.

    Mince garlic.

    Pat pork chops dry, and season both sides with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

  2. 2

    Roast the Carrot Slices

    Place carrot slices, thyme (reserve a pinch for butter), and half the garlic (reserve remaining for broccoli mash) on prepared baking sheet. Toss with 1/2 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper.

    Spread into a single layer and roast in hot oven until tender and lightly caramelized, 18-20 minutes.

    While carrot roasts, make maple butter.

  3. 3

    Make the Maple Butter

    Combine softened butter, half the syrup, and reserved thyme in a mixing bowl until incorporated. Taste, and add more syrup as desired.

    Divide maple butter equally in half and form each half into two disks. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until plating.

  4. 4

    Make the Broccoli Mash

    Add broccoli to boiling water and cook until bright green and very tender, 3-5 minutes.

    Thoroughly drain broccoli in a colander and return to pot. Drain as much water as possible.

    Add sour cream, Parmesan, and remaining garlic. Mash into a coarse consistency. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    Cover and set aside.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pork Chops

    Heat 1/2 tsp. olive oil in a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add pork chops to hot pan and cook until well-browned and pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-5 minutes per side.

    Remove from burner, remove chops to a plate, and rest at least 3 minutes.
