Caribbean Grilled Pork And Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly spray the grill rack or broiler pan and rack with cooking spray. Preheat the grill on high or preheat the broiler.
• In a food processor or blender, process all the seasoning blend ingredients until smooth. Transfer to a large shallow glass dish.
• Add the pork to the seasoning blend, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally.
• Grill the pork or broil about 4 inches from the heat for 5 to 6 minutes on each side, or until slightly pink in the center. Sprinkle with the salt. Serve with the lime wedges to squeeze on top.
• Cook's Tip on Jerking and Jerk Seasoning
• Jerking, a method of cooking in Jamaica, involves rubbing meat with, or marinating it in, a fiery-hot, intensely flavored mixture, then grilling it. Although chicken and pork are the most commonly jerked foods, beef, goat, and fish can also be prepared this way. Jerk seasoning almost always includes some Scotch bonnet or habanero chiles, but we lowered the heat a notch here by using jalapeño. Other very typical jerk seasonings are allspice, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, thyme, garlic, and onions.

Steps:

• Combine peaches, bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Set peach salsa aside.
• Combine olive oil, brown sugar, Caribbean jerk seasoning, thyme, rosemary, and seasoned salt in a second small bowl. Rub tenderloin with the spice mixture.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place tenderloin on hot grill and cook covered for 9 to 11 minutes. Turn and grill until tenderloin is slightly pink in the center, 9 to 11 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with peach salsa.

Steps:

• In a bowl combine 1/3 cup lime juice, oil, garlic, salt, coriander and cayenne pepper; set aside.
• Arrange onions in a large, shallow dish. Arrange pork chops over onion slices. Pour lime marinade over chops and onions. Cover and set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes, turning often.
• Meanwhile, heat grill. Place pork chops and onions on heated grill, discarding marinade. Grill for approximately 15 minutes or until done, turning once.
