Squeaky cheese curds? Check. Savoury brown gravy? Check. The key components of poutine are accounted for, but we’re making it carb-smart by subbing out the potato fries for lengths of roasted carrots. Adding juicy slices of boneless pork chops boosts the protein and the pleasure.

Cook the pork

  • Meanwhile, pat the pork dry; season with all but a pinch of the remaining spices and S&P.

  • In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.

  • Add the pork* and cook, 3 to 5 min. per side, until browned and cooked through.

  • Transfer to a cutting board, leaving any browned bits in the pan. Reserve the pan. Let rest before slicing.

  • In the reserved pan, heat 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) on medium.

  • Add the peas and sauté, scraping up any browned bits, 2 to 3 min., until warmed through.

  • Reduce to medium-low and add the cornstarch mixture. Simmer, stirring often, 30 sec. to 2 min., until the sauce thickens; season with black pepper.
