JALAPEñO-MARINATED GRILLED PORK CHOPS



Jalapeño-Marinated Grilled Pork Chops image

Along with adding some extra smoky-char flavor to the dish, grilling the jalapeños mellows their spiciness. If you want to up the heat, just leave them raw.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup plus 3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided, plus more for grill
4 bone-in pork rib chops (about 10 oz. each)
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 tsp. coriander seeds
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tsp. sugar
2 large jalapeños
1/4 medium white onion, very thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil grate. Pat pork chops dry and season generously all over with salt and pepper. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, toast coriander seeds in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing often, until golden brown and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer seeds to a cutting board and let cool. Using a flat-bottomed mug or a heavy skillet, lightly crush. Place in a small bowl and add vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 cup oil. Season with salt and pepper and whisk until sugar and salt are dissolved. Set marinade aside.
  • Toss jalapeños and 1 Tbsp. oil in a small bowl to coat; season with salt and pepper. Pat pork chops dry again (the salt will have drawn out more moisture) and rub with remaining 2 Tbsp. oil. Grill jalapeños, turning often, until softened and blackened in spots, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. Grill pork chops, turning every 2 minutes or so, until cooked through but still medium-rare closest to the bone (an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should register 145°F), 8-12 minutes. Transfer to cutting board and let rest 10-15 minutes.
  • Cut pork along the bone to remove meat in one piece; slice 1/2" thick and transfer to a rimmed platter. Slice jalapeños crosswise into rounds and scatter over pork. Pour reserved marinade over and let sit at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour before serving. To serve, scatter onion over.

Time 5h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

½ cup honey
6 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons minced garlic
6 pork chops

Steps:

Pour marinade into a resealable plastic bag, reserving about 1/4 of the marinade in a bowl for basting. Add the pork chops to the bag, coat with the marinade, squeeze bag to remove excess air, and seal the bag; marinate in the refrigerator at least 5 hours.
  • Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove pork chops from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
  • Grill pork chops on the preheated grill, basting with the reserved marinade during the last few minutes, until pork chops are cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Let pork chops rest for 3 minutes before serving.

JALAPEñO GRILLED PORK CHOPS



Jalapeño Grilled Pork Chops image

Juicy jalapeños offer discernible heat, but they have a higher purpose beyond that: They provide welcome freshness with their distinct vegetal flavor. When blitzed with aromatic cilantro stems and plenty of garlic, jalapeños transform into a punchy marinade that flavors and tenderizes pork chops gloriously, and tinges them a bright Reptar-Bar green, too. That brilliant color, evidence of the chlorophyll in the peppers and herbs, stays vibrant even after a fiery kiss on the grill.

Categories     dinner, steaks and chops, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 large jalapeños, stemmed
5 large garlic cloves, peeled
1 bunch cilantro stems, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1 packed cup)
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil, plus more for cooking
1 tablespoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
8 thin-cut, bone-in pork loin chops (1/2-inch thick)
1 large jalapeño, thinly sliced into rings
1 small red onion, thinly sliced into rings
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Cilantro leaves and tender stems, for garnish
Cilantro rice or cooked white rice, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the pork chops: In a food processor, blitz the jalapeños, garlic, cilantro stems, rice vinegar, olive oil, salt and sugar until smooth. Place the pork chops in a large bowl or resealable container and pour the marinade over them; turn the chops to evenly coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours.
  • While the chops marinate, prepare a charcoal grill for direct high-heat cooking, or heat a gas grill to medium-high.
  • Make the relish: In a small bowl, toss the jalapeño, red onion, rice vinegar, salt, sugar and 2 tablespoons water. Set aside to quick-pickle until ready to serve, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
  • Carefully grease the grill grate: Use tongs to grip a wadded paper towel dipped in oil and then rub the grates with the oiled towel. With the marinade clinging to them, place the pork chops on the hot greased grate. Grill until the chops are charred at the edges and no longer pink in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes per side. The meat is ready to flip when it releases easily from the grates. (If using a gas grill, close the lid between flips.) Alternatively, cook the chops on the stovetop in batches. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high. Add enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, and heat until shimmering. Add the chops, with the marinade clinging to them, to the pan. Sear until browned and caramelized at the edges and no longer pink in the middle, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Discard any remaining marinade.
  • Serve the chops with the relish and cilantro on top. If you'd like, serve rice alongside.

SEARED PORK CHOPS WITH GRILLED JALAPENO COMPOUND BUTTER



Seared Pork Chops with Grilled Jalapeno Compound Butter image

Provided by Damaris Phillips

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Four 1-inch-thick bone-in pork chops
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Grilled Jalapeno Compound Butter, recipe follows
1 jalapeno, sliced in half lengthwise, stemmed and seeded
Vegetable oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt
2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon lime zest

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Put a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Once heated, add the vegetable oil and heat until hot.
  • Meanwhile, sprinkle the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the pork chops to the hot pan and sear until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and put the whole pan in the oven to cook the pork until medium-rare, 140 degrees F, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Set the pork aside on a plate to rest 5 minutes and carry-over cook another 5 degrees. Top each chop with 2 slices of Grilled Jalapeno Compound Butter and serve.
  • Preheat a charcoal or gas grill to medium-high heat.
  • Skewer the jalapeno halves, weaving the skewer through like a needle. Drizzle with vegetable oil and season with salt. Put skin-side down on the grill over direct heat. Grill until charred on all sides and the skins start to bubble and char, about 1 1/2 minutes total. Put the jalapenos in a mason jar and allow to cool. When cool enough to handle, scrape off the skins and finely chop the jalapenos. Set aside.
  • To a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the butter and beat on medium speed until creamy. Add the honey, lime zest and 2 teaspoons salt, mixing until incorporated. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and fold in the chopped jalapenos.
  • Lay out a piece of parchment paper the size of a baking sheet and add the compound butter to the short side of the paper. Fold the parchment over and form the butter into a log, folding over the edges to completely cover. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. Remove from the parchment and sliced as desired.

Tips:

  • To ensure that the pork chops are cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check if the pork chops are done by cutting into one of them. The meat should be cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  • To make sure that the vegetables are grilled evenly, turn them frequently with tongs.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the vegetables in a grill pan or a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  • To make the jalapeno honey glaze, you can use fresh or jarred jalapenos. If you are using fresh jalapenos, be sure to wear gloves to protect your hands from the capsaicin.
  • You can adjust the amount of honey in the glaze to your liking. If you want a sweeter glaze, add more honey. If you want a spicier glaze, add more jalapenos.

Conclusion:

Jalapeno honey pork chops with grilled vegetables is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are tender and juicy, and the jalapeno honey glaze gives them a sweet and spicy flavor. The grilled vegetables are a healthy and flavorful side dish that complements the pork chops perfectly. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
