¼ cup Lemongrass
1 chop without refuse (Yield from 1 raw ch Pork loin center loin chop
🥄
¼ Tbsp Habanero Peppers
½ cloves, minced Garlic
⅛ cup Orange juice
½ tbsp Fish sauce
½ tbsp Brown sugar
1 ½ tbsp Rice wine vinegar
¾ tbsp Olive oil
🥄
¼ dash Salt
¼ dash Black pepper
¼ medium Jicama
2 cup, chopped Mustard greens

Directions

Prep 40 minCook 15 min

1
Lightly smash the lemongrass with the back of a chef’s knife, then thinly slice it. In a small bowl, combine the lemongrass, habanero, garlic, orange juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, and 4 tbsp of the vinegar. Pour half of the marinade into a large resealable plastic bag and reserve the rest.
2
Prick the pork chops all over with a fork and add them to the bag. Seal the bag and turn to coat the chops. Let them marinate at room temperature, turning occasionally, for at least 30 minutes.
3
Prepare the grill for medium-high heat and oil the grate. Remove the pork chops from the marinade and pat them dry. Season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes. Transfer to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes.
4
Season the jicama with salt and grill until lightly charred, about 3 minutes per side. Cut into bite-size pieces and toss in a large bowl with mustard greens, basil, remaining 3 tbsp of oil, and 2 tbsp of vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
5
Taste the reserved marinade and season with salt if needed. Serve the pork chops with the slaw on the side and drizzle with the marinade.
