30 THE PROTEIN

One 230g pork chop has a hefty 44g of protein for 361kcal and roughly 19g of fat. Like a beef rib-eye steak, good pork chops are juicy and tender when cooked, and they’re full of delicious flavour, too

BUY IT The rib chop (pictured) has a large bone and no tenderloin meat, while the bone-in centre-cut chop has tenderloin and loin. Both are great for grilling or searing. A blade cut, by comparison, comes from the tougher shoulder and is best used for recipes that involve slow cooking (so avoid for this recipe).
