A note about serious food allergies

It's high time the humble pork chop got dressed up and treated like the belle of the ball. We're giving this bone-in pork chop the steakhouse treatment with the classic trimmings usually reserved for hoity-toity cuts of beef. Duchess potatoes are like mashed potatoes taken to further perfection by baking them until they're golden brown and delicious. Châteaubriand is an old-school French sauce made with white wine, shallots, and demi-glace that's delicious on just about anything, but it's sheer perfection with this tender chop.

Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

  1. 1

    Cook Potatoes and Prepare Ingredients

    Peel potatoes and cut into 1” cubes. Bring a small pot with cubed potatoes, 1 tsp. salt, and enough water to cover to a boil. Reduce to simmer and cook until tender, 14-16 minutes. While potatoes boil, peel and mince shallot. Stem tarragon and coarsely chop. Peel carrot, trim, and cut into sticks 3" long and 1/2" thick. Rinse pork chops, pat dry, and season both sides with 1/2 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

  2. 2

    Finish the Potatoes

    Once cooked, drain potatoes in colander and return to pot. Add cream, 1/3 the butter (reserving remaining for sauce), and liquid egg to pot and mash until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Transfer to prepared casserole dish or two oven-safe ramekins. Use a fork to pull sides of potatoes into small peaks, forming decorative ridges. Bake until ridges on potatoes turn golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside. While potatoes bake, roast carrots.

  3. 3

    Roast the Carrots

    Place carrots on prepared baking sheet and toss with 1 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Spread into a single layer and roast until browned and tender, 12-15 minutes. While carrots roast, cook pork chops.

  4. 4

    Cook the Pork

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil and pork chops to hot pan. Cook until browned, 3-5 minutes. Flip, reduce heat to medium, and cook until pork chops are firm and reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-8 minutes. Remove from pan and rest 3 minutes. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  5. 5

    Make the Sauce

    Return pan used to cook pork to medium-high heat. Add shallots and 1/2 tsp. olive oil. Cook until aromatic, 1 minute. Add white cooking wine and demi-glace. Bring to a boil and reduce by half, 2-3 minutes. Remove from burner and swirl in remaining butter and tarragon.

  6. 6

    Plate the Dish

    If carrots are cool, return them to oven to reheat, 1-2 minutes. Set duchess potatoes onto plate and set roasted carrots next to them. Place pork chop in front of vegetables and spoon sauce in front of chop.
