Cilantro Marinated Pork Chops
Recipe Type: Main
Author:
This is an interesting combination of flavors that I tried by Pork loving Michael Symon. It’s an overnight must or up to 2 days. If you love cilantro, you will love this recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons coriander
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Grated zest of 1 lime
- ½ cup chopped cilantro
- 2 thick cut Pork Chops (about 1 to 1 ½ inch thick)
Instructions
- Combine the mustard, salt coriander, cumin, paprika, lime zest, and cilantro in a large zip lock bag and add the chops. Shake and massage the bag to coat the pork evenly and refrigerate overnight or up to 2 days. (The longer the more intense flavor of the herbs)
- When ready to cook, let the pork sit out for about 10 minutes before grilling.
- Heat your grill till about medium high and grill the chops until medium, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from grill and let rest for about 5 minutes. It’s ok if slightly pink in the center, means it will be juicy! It tastes great topped with arugula and a little olive oil.
