To prepare a delicious meal, start by greasing a baking dish with butter and breadcrumbs, ensuring that every corner is covered. This step not only prevents sticking but also adds extra flavor. Once the dish is prepared, set it aside and focus on the chops. Drizzle them with a little olive oil to give them a juicy texture and help the spices adhere. Generously season them with salt, pepper, and rosemary, making sure to cover both sides. Place the chops in a baking dish or on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, taking care to leave enough space between them for even cooking. Put the tray in the preheated oven at medium heat, allowing the meat to cook until it is nicely browned and cooked through in the center. Remember to turn them 2-3 times during cooking for even browning.
Meanwhile, prepare the side dish. Bring lightly salted water to a boil in a large enough pot. When the water starts to boil, add the frozen Brussels sprouts. Give them 3 minutes to boil, covering the pot, until the sprouts become tender and can be easily pierced with a fork. After boiling, drain them in a colander and immediately drizzle with lemon juice to preserve their vibrant color and enhance their flavor. Depending on their size, you can choose to leave them whole or cut them in half.
Once the Brussels sprouts are ready, arrange them evenly in the baking dish, making sure to form a single layer. In another bowl, beat a yolk well with cream, adding salt and pepper to taste. This combination will add creaminess to the dish. Pour the cream and egg mixture over the Brussels sprouts, ensuring you cover them completely. Finally, generously sprinkle grated cheese on top, which will help achieve a golden and delicious crust.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and let it bake for 20-25 minutes at medium heat. You will notice the cheese melting and turning golden, and the inviting aroma will fill the entire room. Once the dish is ready, take it out of the oven and enjoy it alongside the browned chops for a memorable meal full of flavor and contrasting textures.
