If you don’t have the spice ingredients, add whatever flavours that you enjoy. It will work just as well using only flour, salt and pepper.

4 pork chops (about 3 cm thick)

1 tbsp olive oil

Rub

1/2 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp ground cumin

splash of oil

2 banana shallots, very finely diced

1 tsp thyme leaves

100 ml white wine

250 ml chicken stock

Mix the rub ingredients together. pat the meat dry and massage the rub all over the chops. Using a frying pan that has a lid, heat the oil over a medium high heat, add the pork and cook for 3 minutes, Turn the chops over, allow the other side to cook for one minutes then turn the heat to low, cover the frying pan and cook for 4-6 minutes. If you are using very thick chops, check the internal temperature is 72c. Transfer to a plate, cover with foil and leave to rest while you make the sauce.

Add a splash of olive oil to he pan and over a medium heat cook the shallots and thyme for a few minuets until soft, turn the heat to high and pour in the wine and allow to bubble and reduce to a syrup consistency, scraping off any bits stuck to the pan. Pour in the chicken stock and reduce again. Remove from the heat, whisk the cold butter into the sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning.

Add the pork chops back to the pan and coat with sauce, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
