Spice Rubbed Pork Chops with Grilled Zucchini


Great easy recipe from Everyday Foods this weekend.  We had so much to do so it needed to be simple and flavorful.

SPICE RUBBED PORK CHOPS WITH GRILLED ZUCCHINI

1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon light-brown sugar
1&1/2  teaspoons ground cumin
Coarse salt and pepper
4 bone-in pork loin chops (3 pounds total)
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided, plus more for grilling
6 medium zucchini thinly sliced lengthwise
2 limes
1/2 cup crumbled feta ( 2 ounces)


1. In a large zip-top bag, combine coriander, brown sugar, cumin, and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper.  Add pork and 1 tablespoon oil and toss to coat.  Refrigerate at least 8 hours (or up to 1 day)
2. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high; clean and lightly oil hot grill.  Grill pork, covered, about 5 minutes per side for medium.  Let rest, covered, 10 minutes.  
3.  Clean and lightly oil hot grill.  Toss zucchini with 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper.   Grill until tender, 2 to 3 minutes per side.  Grate 1 tablespoon lime zest, then cut limes into wedges.  Transfer half the zucchini to a serving plate and sprinkle with zest and feta.  Serve zucchini and pork with lime wedges.
