These Southwest Summer Pork Chops get their zesty appeal from a simple combination of herbs and seasonings. We love the seasoning blend on pork, but you can also use it on chicken. It gives foods a terrific taste without added salt. Ingredients:
4 teaspoons dried minced onion |
2 teaspoons ground cumin |
1 teaspoon cornstarch |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
1 teaspoon dried minced garlic |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
6 bone-in pork loin chops (about 3/4 inch thick and 7 ounces each) |
1/4 cup barbecue sauce |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the first eight ingredients; rub over pork chops. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine barbecue sauce and lemon juice; add pork chops. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 1-2 hours. 2. Discard marinade. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, lightly coat the grill rack. Grill chops, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Yield: 6 servings. |
