Pork Chops
Season pork chops with salt. Heat 1 Tbsp. Milanese Gremolata Infused Olive Oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook chops, until well browned underneath, about 3 minutes. (Option to grill your pork chops then transfer to skillet) Turn and cook just until second side is lightly browned, about 1 minute. Transfer chops to a plate (chops will not be fully cooked yet); reduce heat to medium.
Pour remaining 1 Tbsp. Milanese Gremolata into same skillet and add shallots. Cook, stirring often, until softened and just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Add Red Wine vinegar, Dijion Mustard and Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic Vinegar. Cook, swirling pan occasionally, until vinegar is nearly evaporated, about 2 minutes.
Add ½ cup water to skillet; season with salt. Reduce heat as needed to maintain a very low simmer.
Return pork chops to skillet, arranging darker side up. Simmer gently in sauce, swirling occasionally, until chops are cooked through, about 3 minutes.
Transfer pork chops to plates and spoon sauce over. Serve with Huckleberry sauce and green beans.
