Ingredients
1 tablespoon grapeseed or canola oil plus 2 teaspoons, divided
2 slices bacon, chopped
1 pound prechopped collard greens or kale (about 14 cups), tough stems removed
½ teaspoon salt, divided
½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
4 medium ears corn, husked and cut in half
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons ketchup
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
⅔ cup fresh blackberries
4 pork loin chops, 1-1 1/2 inches thick (1-1 1/4 pounds)
Directions
Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler to high.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil and bacon in a large pot over medium-high heat; cook, stirring often, until the bacon starts to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Stir in collard greens (or kale) and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Stir the greens and place corn on top of them. Cover and cook until the corn is tender-crisp, about 5 minutes more. Set aside, covered.
Meanwhile, combine honey, ketchup, garlic powder, vinegar and ginger in a small bowl. Add blackberries and coarsely mash, stirring to combine.
Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Season pork chops with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook until browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the chops and top with the sauce.
Transfer the pan to the oven. Broil until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of a chop registers 145 degrees F, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve the pork with the greens and corn.
