Categories     main-dish

Time 3h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

4 (1 1/2-inch) thick pork chops
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon sesame seed oil
1 tablespoon dried herbs (blend of dried and ground oregano, thyme, rosemary, black pepper, and basil, recommended: Daddy's)
4 Granny Smith apples, quartered
1 1/2 sticks butter, melted and slightly browned
1/4 cup ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons ground nutmeg
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts
3 cups water
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, sliced thin
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried herbs (blend of dried and ground oregano, thyme, rosemary, black pepper, and basil, recommended: Daddy's)
1 teaspoon paprika
2 chicken bullion cubes
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Pork Chops:
  • Wash and season the chops with salt, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, coriander, olive oil, sesame seed oil, and dried herbs. Marinate in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Remove chops from marinade and place on the preheated grill. Grill chops on both sides for about 2 minutes each side. Transfer to an ovenproof dish and place in the oven until done. Set aside and keep warm.
  • Apples:
  • Raise oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the apples in a large bowl and add half of the butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar. Mix well and let sit for 20 minutes.
  • Place apples on a greased baking sheet and pour the remaining butter over the apples. Put in the oven and roast until caramelized and fork tender. When serving, pour the juices over the apples.
  • Brussels Sprouts:
  • Cut ends off Brussels sprouts and wash them. In a pasta pot with insert bring the water to a boil. Add Brussels sprouts, cover, and steam for 7 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Add the onions and saute until caramelized. Add the Brussels sprouts, onion powder, garlic powder, dried herbs, paprika, and bouillon cubes, crushing the cubes to combine with the onion mixture. Saute Brussels sprouts until browned. Lower heat, cover and simmer until Brussels sprouts are fork tender. Serve with pork chops and apples.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork loin or tenderloin are good choices for grilling, as they are lean and cook quickly. If you prefer a more flavorful cut, try pork shoulder or butt.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: A marinade will help to tenderize the pork and add flavor. Try using a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices.
  • Grill the pork over medium heat: This will help to prevent the pork from drying out. Cook the pork until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Serve the pork with your favorite sides: Grilled pork pairs well with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or apple sauce.

Conclusion:

Grilled pork and apples is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following the tips in this article, you can create a flavorful and juicy pork dish that will impress your family and friends. So fire up your grill and get cooking!
