Sweet & Spicy: Mango Pork Chops Recipe

Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Pork Chops

Hey there, foodies! Today I want to share a dish that always brings me back to summertime barbecues with friends and family. These spicy mango pork chops are the perfect balance of sweet and savory, with a kick of heat that will leave your taste buds dancing. Let’s dive into the recipe!

Ingredients:

• pork chops (4 pieces)
• mango (1, diced)
• jalapeño (1, finely chopped)
• soy sauce (50ml)
• honey (30ml)
• garlic (2 cloves, minced)
• ginger (1 tbsp, grated)
• lime juice (1 tbsp)
• salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• grill
• mixing bowl
• tongs
• measuring cups
• knife

Start by marinating the pork chops in a mixture of diced mango, chopped jalapeño, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Let them sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to soak up all the flavors.

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Grill the pork chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

While the pork chops are cooking, continue to baste them with the remaining marinade to keep them juicy and flavorful.

Once the pork chops are done, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a tender and moist chop.

Serving:

Plate your spicy mango pork chops alongside some grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal that’s sure to impress. Enjoy them hot off the grill with a cold drink in hand!

One clever tip for this recipe is to reserve some of the mango marinade to serve on the side as a dipping sauce. The extra sweetness and spice take the dish to a whole new level!
