I took notes and created this meal after several attempts to get it to fit my taste. It is funny to look back to my original recipe, as I actually used Vegetable Oil because I was too cheap to buy Olive Oil. I think we can all conclude that the Olive Oil tastes much better :).
Ingredients:
4 boneless pork chops, thick cut
1/2 cup olive oil
1 small red onion, roughly chopped
3 scallions, roughly chopped
1 habanero pepper, stem and seeds removed
1 tablespoon ginger, freshly grated
3 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, fresh ground
1/4 teaspoon clove, fresh ground
1/2 teaspoon allspice, ground
1 lime, juiced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
2 mangoes, peeled, cored, and diced
1/4 cup red onion, minced
2 tablespoons cilantro, fresh chopped
1 lime, juiced
1 tablespoon orange juice
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
Directions:
1. Wash and Pat dry the Pork chops. Place in a glass or plastic shallow dish (for marinating).
2. Mix together all of remaining jerk ingredients in a blender or food processor until a smooth puree is accomplished. Pour the jerk sauce over the pork chops and marinate for up to 24 hours. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the mixture for basting.
3. Grill Pork Chops until cooked to the desired doneness. Baste with the reserved jerk sauce while grilling.
4. In the meantime, mix together the Mango salsa ingredients. You can also add some Pineapple to the mixture.
5. Serve the Salsa on top of the Pork Chops on a pretty plate for your dinner guests.
