Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large leek, halved lengthwise and crosswise
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large jarred roasted red peppers
2 tablespoons raw almonds
1 lemon (1/2 juiced, 1/2 sliced into wedges)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large bunch collard greens, stems removed and leaves cut into large pieces
4 bone-in pork chops (1/2 inch thick; about 6 ounces each)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium. Brush the cut sides of the light-colored half of the leek with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Grill, covered and turning occasionally, until slightly charred and tender, about 8 minutes (reduce the heat or move the leek if it gets too dark). Transfer the grilled leek to a blender along with the roasted peppers, almonds, lemon juice, sugar, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and 2 tablespoons each olive oil and water. Puree until smooth.
  • Wash the collards, leaving a lot of excess water on the leaves. Transfer to a large bowl and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper and toss. Grill the collards and the dark green half of the leek, turning often, until wilted and slightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and tent the collards and leek with foil to steam.
  • Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Grill until well marked and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side.
  • Thinly slice the collards and leek; toss together. Divide the red pepper sauce among plates and top with the greens and pork chops. Sprinkle with the chives.

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Eight 1/2-inch bone-in pork chops (about 3 ounces each)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

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!
