Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds sweet plantains (yellow with black spots), peeled, quartered lengthwise and chopped
1 large red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 red onion, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Grated zest of 1 lime, plus wedges for serving
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
2 teaspoons ground cumin
4 bone-in pork chops (3/4 to 1 inch thick; about 1 3/4 pounds)
Hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the plantains, bell pepper, red onion, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in half of the garlic and cook until golden, about 1 minute; season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, combine the remaining garlic, lime zest, oregano and cumin in a small bowl. Rub on both sides of the pork chops and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a separate large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until browned and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • Divide the pork and plantain hash among plates. Serve with lime wedges and hot sauce.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked it better if there were more spices added to the pork chops and the plantain hash.
