This recipe amplifies the green in the garlic by stirring it into an herb-filled salsa verde. You can also use regular garlic, though you might want to reduce the amount by half. I also added garlic chives to the mix just because I saw them at the farmers' market and figured a little more garlic flavor could only help. (Regular chives are perfectly fine.) The sauce, with plenty of chopped parsley and mint, is intense, bright and herbal. It makes a bright counterpoint to rich slices of seared pork. I used butterflied slices of loin that cook very quickly, but you can use bone-in chops if you give them a few more minutes on the fire (or pound them first).

Steps:
- Combine the herbs, garlic, lemon, 1 teaspoon salt and chile flakes. Stir in 1/2 cup oil.
- Season the meat with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and reduce heat to medium-high. Add the pork and cook without moving, 3 minutes. Flip and cook until meat is just cooked through, about 3 minutes more. Let rest 5 minutes before serving, topped with salsa verde.
