Our favourite honey farm is Arlo’s Honey Farm just outside of Kelowna, B.C. The quality is outstanding. Usually we buy Wildflower and Lavender Honey, except this time they convinced us to try Noir Honey. It is dark and smokey, perfect drizzled on pork or a charcuterie.
Arlo’s has many other products including candles, skin care, chocolate, in addition to countless types of honey.
Instead of apple sauce with pork we often sauté apple slices.
There is no Carb count on the jars, so we use the normal 18 CHO per TBSP/18 Grams.
Ingredients
- 2 TBSP (36 gr) Noir Honey, divided 36 CHO
- 2 small boneless pork chops 0 CHO
- 1 medium 200 gr Granny Smith apple (165 gr) after cored) 18 CHO
- 2 TBSP butter 0 CHO
- Salt and pepper 0 CHO
TOTAL CHO 54 CHO
- 2 SERVINGS = 27 CHO/SERVING
Instructions
- Pre heat grill if using to cook the pork chops or heat a little oil in a skillet if using stove top.
- Lightly salt and pepper the pork and cook to your preference. Toward the end of cooking, baste the pork chops with 1 TBSP of the honey.
- Meanwhile core the apple, cutting int 12 equal pieces.
- Melt butter in a non-stick pan and add the apple slices, sautéing until warm and little golden, but not mushy.
Cut pork into 2 or 3 pieces, and plate 2 servings. Add apples to each plate.
- Drizzle the remaining TBSP of honey over the apple slices and pork.
- *We tried a Gluten Free Couscous with this meal, but were not happy with it, so would recommend Couscous if you are not GF and rice if you are.
