Quick, easy marinade. The smokiness of bourbon and sweetness of honey nicely compliment each other. Found this one night talking with some friends while sipping on some good Kentucky bourbon. Adapted from Cooking Light. Ingredients:
1/3 cup bourbon |
1/4 cup honey |
3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce |
1 tbsp vegetable or light olive oil |
3/4 tsp ground ginger |
1/4 tsp ground black pepper |
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes, or dash red hot pepper sauce, such as frank's x-tra hot sauce. |
4 thin loin pork chops (bone-in or i prefer boneless) |
2 peaches, halved, pitted, and skinned |
Directions:
1. In a shallow Tupperware (or other resealable) container, stir together the bourbon, honey, soy sauce, oil, ginger and black pepper and the pepper flakes or hot sauce.
2. Add the pork chops and peaches and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours.
3. Preheat the grill (or place a grill pan over medium-high heat if cooking indoors). Clean and oil the grill grates well.
4. Place the pork and peaches on the grill reserving the marinade. Cook, turning once, until nicely browned on both sides and cooked through, ~ 4 minutes per side.
5. Meanwhile, in a saucepan on the side burner, (or indoors on the stovetop or in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave) bring the marinade to a boil. Simmer briefly until marinade reduces slightly ( have to kinda place this by sight and feel).
6. Divide the pork and peaches evenly among individual plates and spoon the sauce over them.
7. Serve Immediately.
