Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
4 Coles pork chops
Extra virgin olive oil
1 Coles pineapple, diced
1 red onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 thumb-sized piece of ginger, minced
2 red chillies, finely sliced
2 lime leaves, finely sliced
2 tbs brown sugar
2 tbs Ayam fish sauce
Juice of 2 limes
Salt, to taste
Fresh coriander leaves, finely sliced, for garnish
Method
Score the fat on the pork chops and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with salt.
Heat a barbecue or grill pan to medium-high heat. Cook the pork chops until golden and cooked through, turning halfway. Remove from the heat and set aside to rest.
In a separate pan, heat oil and sauté the red onion until softened.
Add the diced pineapple to the pan and stir. Add the garlic, ginger, and red chilli, stirring to combine.
Continue cooking until the pineapple softens and begins to caramelize.
Stir in the lime leaves, brown sugar, and fish sauce. Cook the mixture down until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
Turn off the heat and add the lime juice, stirring to combine.
To serve, place the pork chop on a plate and sprinkle with salt. Spoon the pineapple and fish sauce dressing over the top and garnish with freshly sliced coriander leaves.
