Pork...sometimes very unforgiving....overcooks in seconds....but we all love good pork chops, tenderloin, ribs..you name it! The secret is to brine pork like we have all learned to do with our Thanksgiving turkey. Simple, salt, sugar, some citrus like orange or lemon, fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme and of course pepper...covered in water for hours or overnight. So after hours of brining..here is a great recipe for pork chops.
Ingredients:
4 boneless pork chops about 3/4 inch thick
1 pineapple thickly sliced
3 tbl orange marmalade
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup roasted cashews, chopped
salt
pepper
Season previously brined pork chops with salt and pepper. On a grill or in a grill pan cook pork about 2-3 minutes a side. Add pineapple to pan. Brush chops and pineapple
with 2 tbl marmalade and grill 3-5 minutes more turning once. Pork should be slightly pink and 160 degrees in the center.
In a bowl combine yogurt and 1 tbl marmalade and a pinch of pepper. Spoon this mixture over chops and pineapple and sprinkle with nuts. Just delicious!
5 INGREDIENTS!
ENJOY!
