Vietnamese-Style Pork
- 2 tablespoons minced lemongrass
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon nam pla, or to taste, or soy sauce
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or more to taste
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless pork chops or country-style ribs
- 1 lime, quartered
- Chopped Thai basil or cilantro for garnish (optional)
- Whisk lemongrass, garlic, honey and nam pla in large bowl.
- Add lime juice and pepper.
- Place pork in the bowl, turning to coat; let stand while you preheat grill or broiler.
- Grill or broil pork, spooning marinade over as it cooks, until nicely done, about 10 minutes.
- Turn only once so that each side browns nicely.
- Serve with remaining lime and, if you like, the herb garnish.
