Grilled Pork Chops With Green Beans And Chimichurri Recipes

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• For the chimichurri sauce, combine all ingredients in a food processor with 1 tablespoon water. Process until blended; set aside.
• Prepare a grill for medium-heat cooking, leaving one area of the grill cool (this will be a place to transfer the chops if they flare up).
• Brush chops all over with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Grill, turning once or twice, until just cooked through, about 15 minutes.
• Watch the chops carefully, and move them to the cool area of the grill if they flare up or brown too quickly.
• Let rest 5 minutes; serve with the chimichurri on the side.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS AND GREENS WITH RED PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Brush the cut sides of the light-colored half of the leek with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Grill, covered and turning occasionally, until slightly charred and tender, about 8 minutes (reduce the heat or move the leek if it gets too dark). Transfer the grilled leek to a blender along with the roasted peppers, almonds, lemon juice, sugar, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and 2 tablespoons each olive oil and water. Puree until smooth.
• Wash the collards, leaving a lot of excess water on the leaves. Transfer to a large bowl and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper and toss. Grill the collards and the dark green half of the leek, turning often, until wilted and slightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and tent the collards and leek with foil to steam.
• Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Grill until well marked and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side.
• Thinly slice the collards and leek; toss together. Divide the red pepper sauce among plates and top with the greens and pork chops. Sprinkle with the chives.

GRILLED STEAK WITH GREEN BEANS, TOMATOES AND CHIMICHURRI SAUCE

Steps:

• Place a double layered piece of heavy-duty foil on a tray or cutting board; fold and gather edge to form a rim. Toss the green beans and tomatoes on foil with 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat a grill to medium. Lightly oil the grill grates and season the steak with salt and pepper. Slide the foil tray onto the grill; cook, tossing occasionally, until the beans char slightly and cook through, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the steaks to the grill; cook until desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove steaks to cutting board to rest 5 minutes. Slice, and serve steak and the vegetables with the Chimichurri Sauce.
• Chimichurri Sauce:
• Combine the garlic, vinegar, herbs, olive oil and water in small food processor; pulse until herbs are coarsely chopped. Season with salt and pepper.

EASY GRILLED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Begin by making the marinade. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, oil, vinegar, cumin and red pepper flakes. Easy, right?
• Sprinkle both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper and place in a re-sealable plastic bag with the marinade. Let rest on the counter for 1 hour. That's easy.
• Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Remove the pork chops from the bag and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on the grill and cook until the pork chop releases from the grill, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side for another 3 minutes. If using a grill pan, be sure to do in batches so you don't steam the chops. And don't worry if you have neither; you can do this in a pan. See, easy!
