This is one of my favorite marinades to use for grilled pork chops. I usually just throw ingredients as I see fit, so the measurements are estimates. The roasted red chili paste can be found in the Asian section of your grocery store.

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup soy sauce
½ cup brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon roasted red chili paste
6 (1-inch thick) pork chops

Steps:

  • Place the soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, cumin, and chili paste in a large, heavy plastic zipper bag. Smush the bag a few times with your fingers to mix all the ingredients thoroughly and dissolve the brown sugar; place the pork chops into the marinade, and seal the bag. Allow to marinate for 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the pork chops from the marinade, and discard the marinade. Shake off excess marinade, and grill the pork chops until browned, the meat is no longer pink inside, and the chops show good grill marks, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chop should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

ASIAN PORK STEAKS (MARINADE)



Asian Pork Steaks (Marinade) image

My Vietnamese fiance taught this to me. It has a strong flavor, so I serve it over a bed of rice with steamed veggies on the side. Regular Soy sauce works fine, but I prefer the low-sodium to ease the saltiness. You can fry, grill or broil the steaks, depending upon your taste. Very simple though! Prep time includes marinating, and cook time is for frying the steaks. --ETA-- I've made these as a dump recipe, and they worked great! I pour all the ingredients into a freezer bag, and when I wanted to cook them, I let them thaw overnight in the fridge. NOTE-- When you marinate them in a zippered bag, you only need half of the sauce to cover all the pork.
