The delightful flavors of lemongrass and garlic really shine through in this simple grilled pork chop recipe. I recommend keeping the pork chops thin so that the marinade can really penetrate. Serve with a sunny-side-up egg for a true Vietnamese style dish.
Combine all ingredients for the marinade in a large bowl and whisk until well combined.
Place the pork chops in a shallow baking dish or large Ziploc bag and pour the marinade on top.
Refrigerate for at least one hour.
Preheat grill (or a cast iron skillet) to medium-high heat.
Grill the pork chops for about 4-5 minutes per side (depending on the thickness), or until an internal temperature of 145° is reached.
While the pork chops are cooking, transfer the remaining marinade to a saucepan and simmer over medium heat until reduced by about half.
To serve, place one chop atop a bed of rice, top with a sunny-side-up egg, spoon on some of the reduced marinade, and garnish with sliced green onions. Enjoy!
