- 100 g brown sugar

Creamy broccoli rice
- 600 g broccoli, chopped
- 1 liter vegetable broth, from 1 cube
- 180 g brown rice cooked in 450 ml water
directions
- In a bowl combine the brown sugar and spices (salt, pepper, cayenne, paprika and garlic powder).
- Rub the brown sugar/spice mix all over both sides of the each chop. Use all of the spice mix.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium/high heat. Add the pork chops. Cook the chops in olive oil over medium heat for about 7 minutes on each side or until they are nicely browned and cooked through.
- For the broccoli rice cook the rice according to package directions. Set aside.
- Cook broccoli in the vegetable broth for about 10 minutes or until very tender. Mash or puree the broccoli, adding milk to get a smooth, creamy consistency. Pour over the cooked rice and stir to combine.
