Jerk Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Combine water, lemon juice, onion, brown sugar, green onions, oil, salt, allspice, cinnamon, black pepper, thyme, and cayenne pepper in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Reserve 1/2 cup for basting.
• Place pork chops in shallow glass dish. Pour remaining marinade over the meat. Cover, and refrigerate at least 12 hours, but no longer than 24 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium heat. Place grate 4 to 5 inches above heat source.
• Oil the grill grate. Arrange chops on grate, and discard marinade. Cover grill, and cook chops for 10 minutes, turning once, or to desired doneness.

Steps:

• Soften 1 tablespoon butter; mix with peach preserves., Sprinkle chops with seasonings. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat; brown chops 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from pan., Cut peppers into thin strips. In same pan, saute peppers in remaining butter over medium-high heat until crisp-tender and lightly browned, 5-6 minutes. Add chops; top with preserves mixture. Cook, uncovered, until heated through, 30-60 seconds. If desired, serve with rice.

Steps:

• Slash fat around chops at intervals.
• In a bowl, combine soy sauce, orange juice, oil, garlic, green onions, allspice, thyme, salt, pepper, ginger and cayenne.
• Rub mixture on both sides of chops.
• In small roasting pan, roast chops in oven preheated to 375°F(190°C) turning halfway through, until browned and juices run clear when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Chop the scallions, keeping the whites and greens separate.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until hot. Stir in the scallion whites and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the scallions are golden, about 2 minutes. Stir in the beans along with any liquid in the can, bring to a simmer and then remove from the heat. Adjust seasoning if needed.
• Pulse the banana chips in a blender until finely ground. Stir the banana crumbs together with the panko and jerk seasoning. Sprinkle each pork chop with a generous pinch of salt and pepper, and then dredge them in the banana crumb coating, pressing so the crumbs adhere.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Then add the pork chops in batches and cook, turning once, until golden and just pink in the center, about 8 minutes total. Wipe out the skillet and cook the remaining pork chops with the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in the same manner. Let the pork stand 5 minutes.
• Serve the pork with the rice and beans, sprinkled with the reserved scallion greens.

Steps:

• Make marinade:
• Pur&ée marinade ingredients in a small food processor or a blender and transfer to a sealable plastic bag.
• Marinate pork, then grill:
• Put pork in bag, turning to coat, and seal bag. Marinate pork, chilled, turning occasionally, 8 hours. Brush a well-seasoned cast-iron ridged grill pan lightly with some oil and heat over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Grill pork, seasoned with salt, in batches over moderate heat, turning occasionally, until cooked through, about 9 minutes on each side. (Discard any remaining marinade in bag.) Transfer pork to a plate to cool slightly. With your fingers, shred warm pork into a bowl and toss with oil, scallion, and salt to taste. Keep warm, covered.

Steps:

• Mix first 5 ingredients until blended.
• Heat oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add onions and green peppers; cook and stir 3 min. or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove from skillet; set aside. Add chops to skillet; cook 3 to 5 min. on each side or until chops are evenly browned on both sides.
• Add barbecue sauce mixture and vegetables to skillet; cover. Simmer on medium-low heat 10 min. or until chops are done (145ºF). Remove from heat. Let stand 3 min. before serving.

Steps:

• Combine jerk seasoning, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Shake about 1 tablespoon jerk rub into the skillet. Add onions; cook and stir until soft, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle 1/2 of the remaining jerk rub onto one side of each pork chop. Use a knife to poke 4 or 5 holes in each chop and pour 1/2 of the lime juice over top. Place chops, seasoned-side down, into the hot skillet.
• Cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. While cooking, sprinkle remaining jerk rub onto the top side of the chops. Poke holes as before, and pour remaining lime juice over top. Flip chops and cook until browned and no longer pink in the center, another 5 to 7 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• Mince and mash onion to a coarse paste with thyme, sugar, salt, and spices. Pat pork chops dry and rub all over with jerk paste. Grill pork on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 4 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. (Alternatively, pork may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.)

Steps:

• Zest one of the limes and juice it.
• Put 1 tablespoon lime zest and 1 tablespoon lime juice in a small bowl.
• Add the jerk seasoning and the olive oil and stir until the mixture forms a thick paste.
• Spread the lime-jerk paste on both sides of each pork chop and put the chops on a plate.
• Let the chops marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat a gas grill to med-high; place the chops on the grill.
• After 6 minutes, turn the chops and cook until they are brown outside and slightly pink inside, another 5-6 minutes.
• Remove from the grill and let the chops rest for about 5 minutes.
• While they are resting, cut the remaining lime into wedges.
• To serve, place 1 pork chop on each plate and garnish with a lime wedge and 2 cilantro sprigs.
