  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 4 boneless, center-cut pork chops (each 6 to 7 oz.and 1 in. thick)

  • 1 ¼ teaspoons kosher salt, divided

  • 1 cup finely chopped yellow onion 

  • 2 medium carrots, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise (about 1 cup)

  • 1 tablespoon thinly sliced fresh sage

  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic (from 3 cloves)

  • 2 15.5-oz. cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

DIRECTIONS

Step 1  Preheat oven to 375°F. Place croutons in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin until coarse crumbs form.

Step 3 Add onion and carrots to skillet. Cook over medium, stirring often, until onion softens and starts to brown, about 6 minutes. Add sage and garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in beans, stock, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt


Step 4  Nestle pork chops in bean mixture. Bake until a thermometer inserted in thickest portion of pork chops registers 145°F, 8 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle crouton crumbs around pork chops.
