Vietnamese Pork Chop

Pork is probably the most widely used meat in Vietnam. This lemongrass marinade is perfect for a pork cutlet to cook on the outdoor grill.

Instructions
- Place the Marinade ingredients in a ziplock bag and massage the bag to mix the ingredients.
- Add pork to the Marinade and massage the bag to coat all the cutlets with the Marinade.
- Marinate for at least 4 hours, up to 24 hours.
- Brush the outdoor grill with oil and heat to medium high (or pan on a stove).
- Remove pork from the marinade.
- Place pork on the grill and cook each side for 2 minutes, or until cooked (depends on thickness of the cutlets). Remember that it will continue to cook while resting.
- Remove pork from the grill onto a plate and cover loosely with foil. Rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- I often freeze the meat with the marinade. Then defrost and bring to room temperature before cooking.
