A lot of purchased barbecue sauces are really high in sugar. If you need to watch the amount of sugar in your diet, try grilling pork chops with this flavorful rub, instead. The rub goes on in advance so the flavors can penetrate the chops.

Time 8h45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 (5 ounce) boneless pork loin chops, cut 1-inch thick

  • Place chops on a plate and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.

CUMIN-BAKED PORK CHOPS



Cumin-Baked Pork Chops image

This fast, easy recipe for succulent pork chops came to The Times in 1997, part of a deep dive on cumin by the writer Molly O'Neill. It is simple to prepare and can be a delicious end to a long day. Using crushed cumin instead of ground will give the chops a bit of fresh texture, but if you don't have cumin seeds, feel free to substitute.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 160°F (71°C) for medium, or 170°F (77°C) for well-done.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the doneness of the pork chops by making a small incision in the center of the meat. If the juices run clear, the pork chops are done.
  • For a more intense cumin flavor, toast the cumin seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes before grinding them.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the pork chops in a grill pan over medium heat.
  • Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

This cumin-rubbed grilled pork chop recipe is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The cumin rub gives the pork chops a delicious smoky flavor, and the grilled vegetables add a healthy and flavorful side dish.
