Gainer Salad
Ingredients
- 1 Head of Lettuce
- 2 Pork Chops, diced
- 1/2 Cup Almonds, diced
- 200g Bacon Lardons
- 300g Mushrooms, diced
- 1/2 Stick of Butter
- 1 Tsp Vegetable Oil, or other oil with a high smoke point
- Vinaigrette, to serve
Steps
- Clean and dice the mushrooms and almonds, ensuring to keep the mushrooms as dry as possible before frying and removing any hard stems. Season the pork chops with herbs and spices of your choice.
- Add oil to a pan and sear the pork chops on high heat for 1 minute on each side. Turn it down to medium heat and flip every minute for 10 minutes.
- Add two tablespoons of butter, coat each side, and allow to baste for up to 5 minutes on medium heat. Take off the heat, and allow to rest for 2-3 minutes before dicing.
- Add the bacon lardons to the pan on medium heat, and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Take it off the heat and allow it to rest.
- Deglaze the pan with the remaining butter and add the mushrooms in one layer, to fry for 5 minutes, moving them. Stir for another 3-5 minutes, and season with herbs and spices of your choice. Take it off the heat and allow it to rest.
- Core your lettuce and clean each leaf. Dry and shred as per your preferred method.
- Add the lettuce, mushrooms, bacon lardons, pork chops, and almonds to your salad bowl, and toss.
- Add salt and pepper to taste, then add vinaigrette to serve.
