This recipe came about because I had some pork loin chops that needed to be used and some left over Mesa Grill Spice just sitting around. Decided to throw the two together with what ever else happened to be in the fridge come dinner time. Serve over egg noodles or rice. Would also work well with cubes of chicken or salmon Ingredients:
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil |
1/2 cup onion, chopped |
1 lb boneless center cut pork chop, cubed |
1/2 lemon, juice of |
1 1/2 cups fresh asparagus, cut on the diagonal |
1/2 cup sugar snap pea, ends trimmed |
1 cup tomato, seeded & chopped |
10 ounces dry white wine, divided, a nice italian pinot grigio is always good |
2 teaspoons dried ancho chile powder |
1 teaspoon smoked paprika |
1 teaspoon ground coriander |
1 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Put one clean & empty wine glass into freezer.
2. Mix up all Grill Spice Mixture ingrediants. Set aside.
3. In a large saucepan over medium/high heat, heat up olive oil. Add chopped onion and saute until translucent.
4. Remove wine glass from freezer and pour 6 ounces of dry white wine into chilled wine glass for the cook.
