| Atkins - Pork Chops with Walnuts and Blue Cheese
PORK CHOPS WITH WALNUTS AND BLUE CHEESE Servings: 2

4 4-ounce boneless center-cut pork loin chops
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 ounces Roquefort cheese or similar blue cheese (about
1/2 cup)
2 green onions, chopped
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup water
1. In heavy skillet over high heat, toss walnuts until they
just begin to brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer nuts to a
small bowl. Add oil and heat over high heat. Brown
chops about 1 minute on each side. Cover pan, reduce
heat to low and cook chops 6 minutes, just until cooked
through. While chops cook, combine cheese, green
onions, and pepper with nuts and mix well. Transfer
chops to a platter and return pan to the stove. Pour in
water; bring to a boil, scraping up brown bits on bottom
of pan. Cook until juices thicken slightly. Pour juice over
chops and top with nut mixture.
Three elements in this recipe--sweet pork, the woodsy flavor of
toasted nuts and the salty tang of blue cheese turn plain chops
into a memorable entree.
