🥘 Ingredients

13 items

• 4 pieces (bone-in or boneless, about 1-inch thick) pork chops
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 0.25 cup coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon sriracha (or your favorite chili sauce)
• 1 tablespoon (chopped) fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

📝 Instructions

7 steps

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C). If using a grill pan, heat it on medium-high on your stovetop.

2. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and brush each side lightly with olive oil.

3. In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Rub this seasoning mix evenly onto both sides of the pork chops.

4. Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Remove the pork chops from the grill, cover loosely with foil, and let them rest for 5 minutes.

5. While the pork chops are grilling, prepare the sat sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine soy sauce, peanut butter, lime juice, brown sugar, coconut milk, and sriracha. Whisk the mixture continuously until smooth and slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

6. To serve, plate the grilled pork chops and drizzle a generous amount of the sat sauce over each chop. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro for garnish, if desired.

7. Serve immediately with steamed rice, grilled veggies, or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
