Instructions

  1. Place the Marinade ingredients in a ziplock bag and massage the bag to mix the ingredients.
  2. Add pork to the Marinade and massage the bag to coat all the cutlets with the Marinade.
  3. Marinate for at least 4 hours, up to 24 hours.
  4. Brush the outdoor grill with oil and heat to medium high (or pan on a stove).
  5. Remove pork from the marinade.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  • Nutrition per serving.
