Rogan Josh Pork Chops with Cauliflower Rice

(recipe serving size – 2-4 people)

For the cauliflower rice:

1 small head of cauliflower (or 1/2 large head)

1 small red bell pepper, diced

Quarter the cauliflower and remove the core. Toss the cauliflower into a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower florets are the consistency of rice. Set aside (separate from the red bell pepper) until they are ready to be cooked.

For the pork chops:

4 bone in pork chops (roughly 6-8 oz each)

2 tsp rogan josh curry

2 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp za’atar

1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

2 tb olive oil

Coat the pork chops with 1 tb of the olive oil and all of the spices. Heat the 2nd tb of olive oil in a large enough pan for all of the chops and cook them over medium to medium-high heat for 6 minutes on each side. Set the chops aside on a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

For cooking the cauliflower rice:

Prepared cauliflower

Diced red bell pepper

1 tb olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

In the same pan as the pork chops, add the olive oil and the prepared cauliflower. Stir the cauliflower, coating it with the drippings from the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes until the cauliflower is tender. Add the chopped bell pepper and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the pepper is warmed through. Salt and pepper to taste.
