Lemongrass Pork Chop with Orange Sauce on rice
Lemongrass Pork Chop with Orange Sauce is a delicious and flavorful dish that combines tender pork chops marinated with lemongrass, garlic, and other spices, then grilled or pan-seared to perfection. The orange sauce adds a tangy and citrusy touch to the dish, balancing out the savory flavors of the pork. Serving it on a bed of rice allows you to soak up all the delicious juices and flavors.
Ingredients
- 4 pork chops
- 2 lemongrass stalks finely chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger grated
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 orange zest and juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups cooked rice
- cilantro freshly chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together lemongrass, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, honey, orange zest, and orange juice to make the marinade.
- Place the pork chops in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the pork chops are well coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or ideally overnight for the best flavor.
- Heat a grill or a pan over medium-high heat. Cook the pork chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and nicely charred.
- In a small saucepan, heat the remaining marinade over medium heat until it thickens slightly to make the orange sauce.
- Serve the grilled pork chops on a bed of cooked rice, drizzle with the orange sauce, and garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
- Enjoy!
