Prep: 5 minutes Cook/Grill: 10 minutes
This is a quick and easy meal that will leave you licking your chops. The Cuban marinade is so tasty and zesty that you will want to use it on all different kinds of meals; and you can so go right ahead! If pork is not your favorite the recipe works just the same on chicken; although I recommend it on the chops.
Ingredients
4 pork boneless loin or rib chops- about 1 inch thick
Cuban Rub
o 2 tablespoons of lemon zest
o 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
o 1 tablespoon cumin seed/ground
o 2 tablespoons EVOO
o ½ teaspoon of salt
o 1 clove garlic- finely chopped
The Process
1. Heat grill or flat iron skillet with a medium heat. Remove excess fat from the pork. Make the Cuban Rub by mixing all the ingredients listed above.
2. Rub the mixture evenly on both sides of the pork.
3. Cover and grill pork over a medium heat 8-10 minutes, turning frequently, until it is slightly pink in the center; if the meat is left on to long it will become tuff.
4. Enjoy your quick and easy dinner!
