Recipe by /contributors/alison-roman A little honey in the marinade helps these cutlets caramelize, guaranteeing they'll be nicely browned despite the super-short cooking time.

Ingredients

1 1/4 pounds boneless pork shoulder (Boston butt), fat trimmed to 1/4", cut into 4 pieces Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper 2 garlic cloves, finely grated 1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated peeled turmeric or 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric 1/2 cup plain whole-milk yogurt 1/4 cup honey 2 tablespoons (or more) fresh lemon juice, divided 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 3 small beets, scrubbed, thinly sliced 3 small carrots, preferably with tops, tops reserved, carrots scrubbed, cut on a diagonal 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives 2 tablespoons olive oil Flaky sea salt

Instructions

Pound pork between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to 1/4" thick; season with kosher salt and pepper. Whisk garlic, turmeric, yogurt, honey, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a small bowl; season with kosher salt and pepper. Place cutlets in a large resealable bag. Add yogurt mixture, seal bag, and toss to coat. Let sit at least 10 minutes. Remove cutlets from marinade, letting excess drip off. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high; cook 2 cutlets until browned and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer pork to a platter. Wipe out skillet; repeat with remaining cutlets and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Toss beets, carrots, carrot tops (if using), chives, olive oil, and remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a small bowl. Season with kosher salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired. Serve pork topped with salad and sprinkled with sea salt.
