Spicy Mango Glazed Caribbean Jerk Pork
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 pork chops
- 1/4 cup Caribbean jerk seasoning
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the Caribbean jerk seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. Rub the mixture onto both sides of the pork chops, then cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to marinate.
- In a saucepan, combine the diced mangoes, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, ginger, and garlic. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mangoes have softened and the mixture has thickened into a glaze. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated pork chops on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
- During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the mango glaze onto the pork chops, allowing it to caramelize and create a sticky coating.
- Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with additional mango glaze on the side, if desired.
