Mustard-Crusted Pork Chops With Asparagus-Potato Salad
- 1 pound red potatoes cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- kosher salt
- 1 bunch asparagus trimmed and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 3 tablespoons breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons fresh tarragon chopped
- 4 boneless center cut pork chops 3/4 inch thick
- freshly ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup fat free sour cream
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup fresh basil torn
- Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until tender, about 9 minutes, adding the asparagus during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain.
- Meanwhile, combine the breadcrumbs and 1 tablespoon tarragon in a shallow dish. Season the pork with 1/2 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper and the paprika. Spread 1 tablespoon mustard on one side of the chops, then press, mustard-side down, into the crumb mixture.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the pork chops, crumb-side down, and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side.
- Whisk the sour cream, vinegar and the remaining 1 tablespoon each mustard and tarragon in a large bowl. Add the potatoes and asparagus, the basil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; toss. Serve with the pork chops.
