Paprika Pork Chops with a Spicy Red Pepper Marinade
Serves 4
Prep time: 10 minutes plus marinating
Cooking time: 20 minutes
1 jar Seriously Good Spicy Red Pepper & Italian Sausage sauce
½ tsp hot smoked paprika
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground coriander
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 pork loin chops on the bone, 250-300g each
2 tbsp olive oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Pour the jar of Seriously Good Spicy Red Pepper & Italian Sausage sauce into a wide dish and mix with the paprika, cumin and coriander. Trim the excess fat from the pork and lay in the baking dish, turning to coat in the marinade. Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for 2 hours or overnight.
When you are ready to start grilling, scrape the excess marinade from the pork into a small pan. Pour the rest of the marinade from the dish into the pan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 10 minutes and then remove from the heat.
Brush the pork all over with 1-2 tablespoons olive oil and season generously. Grill the pork for 5-6 minutes on each side, basting with the marinade towards the end of cooking, until the pork feels firm but springy to the touch. Leave the pork to rest on a warm plate for 5 minutes. Serve with a little of the remaining marinade brushed over.
Serve with sweet potato wedges and green vegetables or salad on the side.
