Parsnip-Nested Pork Chops

Directions

1. In a large non-stick skillet, brown chops over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, turning once until internal temperature on a thermometer reads 145 degrees F. Sprinkle lightly with salt if desired. Remove chops; let rest 3 minutes and keep warm.
2. Toss together the parsnips, carrot, green onion, tarragon, salt and pepper. Melt butter in skillet. Add parsnip mixture to skillet; toss to coat well. Cover and cook 2-3 minutes, stirring once. Cook until vegetables are just crisp-tender. Do not overcook.
3. To serve, place vegetables on plate; nest chop in center. Garnish with additional green onion strips or slices if desired.
