This pan-seared pork blade chop is a wonderfully succulent main course that relies on a simple, fragrant marinade of fresh lemon, garlic and aromatic rosemary. By using a thicker cut of meat and a slow-searing technique, the pork retains its natural moisture while developing a deeply savoury, golden crust in the frying pan. The bright acidity from the lemon slices balances the richness of the pork, creating a sophisticated dish that requires very little active preparation time.
As a diabetes-friendly recipe, this dish focuses on high-quality protein and heart-healthy olive oil, making it an excellent choice for a nutritious homemade dinner. Serving the chop with mellow roasted garlic and fresh herbs adds incredible depth of flavour without the need for sugary glazes or heavy sauces. Pair it with steamed seasonal greens or a crisp garden salad for a light yet satisfying meal.

Ingredients for Pan-Seared Pork Blade Chop
1 1 1/2"-thick pork blade chop (about 1.1kg)
1 lemon, thinly sliced, seeds removed, plus lemon wedges for serving
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped, plus 1 head of garlic, halved crosswise
120ml olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary, plus sprigs for serving
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
How to make Pan-Seared Pork Blade Chop
Combine pork, lemon slices, chopped garlic, oil, and 2 tablespoons chopped rosemary in a shallow baking dish; season with salt and pepper. Cover and chill at least 8 hours.
Let pork sit at room temperature 30 minutes before cooking.
Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high heat. Scrape marinade off pork, place pork in skillet, and immediately reduce heat to medium. Cook, turning about every 5 minutes, until browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of chop registers 57°C, 20–25 minutes. During last 10 minutes, add head of garlic to skillet, cut sides down, and cook until golden.
Transfer to a cutting board; let pork rest at least 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with lemon wedges, cooked garlic, and rosemary sprigs.
DO AHEAD: Pork can be marinated 1 day ahead. Keep chilled.
