I suppose we will never get off of this Mexican Tex-Mex train we are on down here in SA. This recipe originated from the Yucatan and represents a simple side of Mexican cooking....I say make up a batch of Jerry's Famous Margaritas or crack open a good Mexican beer to enjoy while you are getting the charcoal ready....This dish is easy, good, and fresh.......Enjoy!
Serves 4-5
1 Med Sweet Onion, cut in thick slices for grilling
1 1/2 pound thin cut Pork Chops
1/4 C Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
1/2 C Fresh Squeezed Lime Juice
3 C Cabbage, sliced thin
1/3 C Cilantro, chopped
2-3 Tomatoes, sliced
1-2 Avocados, sliced
Salt & Pepper
1 Lime, sliced for garnish
Hot sauce, to serve on side
Fresh Salsa, to serve on side
Warm Tortillas, to serve on the side
Stir Orange and Lime Juice together. Pour 1/4 C of the juice over the pork and let marinate for 15-20 min. Meanwhile, start charcoal grill. While coals are getting ready, prepare the rest of ingredients. Toss Cabbage and Cilantro with 1/4 C of the Lime/Orange juice, season with salt and pepper. Spread out onto a large serving platter. Decorate with slices of Tomato and Avocado, season those with a little salt/pepper too, set aside (or in the fridge). Once grill is ready, season and grill onion rings until roasted about 6-8 min. Remove, chop and toss with the remaining 1/4 cup of juice, set aside. Sprinkle both sides of pork with salt and pepper and grill 3 min per side, or until done. Lay meat on the platter of cabbage and top with grilled onions. Serve with warm tortillas, salsa and hot sauce....
