Easy Quinoa Casserole And Grilled Pork Chops Recipes

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!

Steps:

• In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to brown. Remove from skillet; set aside.
• Season both sides of pork chops with 1/4 teaspoon of the seasoned salt, the thyme and pepper. Heat remaining 3 teaspoons oil in same skillet over medium heat. Add pork; cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Transfer from skillet to plate.
• Add water, vinegar, quinoa, parsley, cooked onion and remaining 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt to skillet. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; place pork and any juices on top of quinoa mixture. Cover; simmer 10 minutes.
• Add broccoli and peaches; cover and cook about 10 minutes longer or until quinoa is tender and meat thermometer inserted in center of pork reads 145°F.

Steps:

• Season both sides of the pork chops with cayenne pepper and black pepper and lightly poke with a fork to make a few holes. Place pork in a casserole dish, pour soy sauce over top, and add garlic. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, turning halfway through.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove chops from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Place chops on the preheated grill and reduce heat to medium. Cook until no longer pink in the center, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Place the pork chops or chicken into a large ziploc bag or bowl with a lid (not a metal container).
• Pour salad dressing in the bag or bowl.
• Marinate at least 4 hours or overnight, turning the bag or shaking up the bowl 3 or 4 times.
• (I do the overnight marinade in a bag).
• Place the chops on a hot grill and cook until juices run clear.
• Baste these with butter as they cook so they stay tender.
• Serve with your favorite BBQ sides.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, vegetable oil, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic, onion powder, and red pepper flakes to make a marinade.
• Place pork chops in a container or gallon-sized freezer bag and pour marinade on top.
• Place container in fridge and let pork chops marinate for at least 2 hours, preferably longer (up to 8 hours - the longer you can let it marinade, the more flavorful your pork chops will be).
• Preheat grill (or grill pan on stove top) to medium heat. Remove pork chops from the bag (discard marinade) and place pork chops on the grill. Grill for 6-8 minutes per side, until the outside is seared and the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees.
• Let pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving and enjoy!
