Ingredients:
- 2 lb. carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 4 Tbsp. salted butter, cubed
- 1 Tbsp. honey
- 1/2 tsp. kosher salt, plus more to taste
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
- 5 Tbsp. panko breadcrumbs
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 4 boneless pork loin chops (4 oz. each, about 1 inch thick)
- 2 Tbsp. honey mustard
- Chopped fresh parsley, for topping
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Fill a medium saucepan with 2 inches of water and set a steamer basket inside. Add carrots, cover, and steam until tender, about 20 minutes.
- Drain carrots and transfer to a food processor. Blend until mostly smooth but not completely pureed. Add butter, honey, salt, and cayenne; pulse until butter melts in. Keep mash warm.
- Meanwhile, mix panko, olive oil, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
- Place pork chops on a baking sheet. Spread with honey mustard, then top with the panko mixture, pressing gently so it sticks.
- Bake 10–12 minutes, until crumbs are golden and pork is just cooked through. (It will finish cooking once out of the oven.) Serve with carrot mash and sprinkle with parsley.
