Pork Chops with Chinese Vegetables
Healthy, because

Nutritional values
Together with the other ingredients, pork provides the daily required amount of nerve-strengthening vitamin B1 almost completely and vitamin B12 at least 80% - perfect after a hard day at school!
If you take 300 grams of turkey escalope instead of cutlet, there is more protein and less fat for the same calorie content. You can replace the mung bean sprouts with a finely sliced small fennel bulb.

Kitchen utensils
Preparation steps
Rinse scallions, shake dry and cut into thin rings.
Peel carrots and cut lengthwise into thin slices, then into thin strips.
Rinse mung bean sprouts and drain. Peel the garlic and chop finely.
Bring rice and 200 ml (approximately 3/4 cup) of lightly salted water to a boil, then cover and cook over low heat for about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, rinse chops under cold water and pat dry well with paper towels.
Mix the flour and 5-spice powder in a small bowl. Season chops with salt and rub lightly with the flour mixture.
Heat the oil in a large skillet and cook the chops for 3-5 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness. Remove from skillet and set aside. Wrap chops in foil to keep warm.
Add carrots to the skillet, cover and cook in the meat juices over low heat for 5 minutes.
Add scallions, garlic and sprouts and cook for another 5 minutes, adding a little water if it seems dry.
In the meantime, finely grate the zest of lime half and then squeeze out the juice.
Stir lime zest and juice with ketchup and soy sauce and mix into the vegetables.
Unwrap chops from the foil, pour the accumulated juices over the vegetables and then place the chops on top. Cook, covered, for about 3 minutes and serve with rice.
