• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Stir together the soy sauce, chili sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, vinegar, grated ginger and grated garlic in a small bowl.

Start brushing both the pork and the onions with the hoisin sauce mixture about halfway through grilling. Transfer the pork chops to a cutting board to rest for about 5 minutes and the onions to a bowl.

Add to the bowl with the onions and gently toss with the reserved 2 tablespoons ginger sauce. Serve the pork chops with the grilled vegetables and the reserved hoisin sauce mixture on the side.

VIETNAMESE GLAZED SKINNY PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Note - The ingredients above are directly from the recipe; however, I didn't use the shallots when I made mine. I didn't have any. I also didn't use the peanuts b/c I forgot. But honestly, I don't think you need them. Nor did I add the salt b/c fish sauce is pretty salty tasting.
• Combine vegetable oil with honey, fish sauce, garlic, shallots and pepper. Add the pork chops, coat thoroughly in marinade and refrigerate over night or place in freezer bag and freeze. (Mine marinaded more than one night once thawed - turned out great!).
• Lightly season pork chops with salt (I did not do this step). Brush grill with oil (I used indoor grill pan). IMPORTANT - cook the pork over a very HIGH heat until nicely charred and just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• Scatter the peanuts on top and serve right away. (However, I have refrigerated these and reheated the next night in microwave on 50% power and they turned out fine.).
