Description
Pork loves a strong, golden sear. When it meets the heat, its meat almost always produces a perfect crust—aromatic and slightly caramelized. But cooking pork is a science. Depending on which cut you get, you'll need to handle it differently. The best choice for a steak is pork shoulder, which is used in this recipe—juicy meat with a good balance of muscle and fat, behaving equally well during baking in the oven and frying in a pan. When you go meat shopping, remember that pork pairs wonderfully with rosemary, with its slightly piney and lively aroma and flavor.
Ingredients
- Pork Neck - 17.6 oz
- Vegetable Oil - 1 fl oz
- Butter - 1.1 oz
- Rosemary - 1 sprig
- Garlic - 2 cloves
- Salt - to taste
- Ground Black Pepper - to taste
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Rinse the pork and pat it dry, then cut it across the grain into pieces about 1 inch thick.
Step 2
Season the steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
Step 3
Heat a skillet over high heat and add vegetable oil.
Step 4
Place the steaks on a hot skillet and sear the meat until a golden crust forms on one side. Do not flip the meat until it is well browned. This will take about 3–4 minutes.
Step 5
Then flip the steaks and cook them on the other side until they develop a similar golden crust.
Step 6
When the meat is nicely browned on both sides, turn the steaks over again and reduce the heat to medium.
Step 7
Add whole peeled garlic cloves to the skillet, along with a piece of butter and rosemary. Continue to fry the steaks for another 5–7 minutes, turning them occasionally.
Step 8
Check the steaks for doneness by piercing them with a knife. If the juices that run out are clear and not pink, then they are ready.
Step 9
Once the pork steaks are cooked, allow them to rest. To do this, remove the skillet from the heat and cover it with a lid. Alternatively, you can wrap the steaks in foil and let them sit for 10-15 minutes. After that, serve immediately.
