Blackberry Hoisin Pork
2 servings
35 minutes total

Ingredients

  • 1 shallot
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • ½ cup fresh (or frozen) blackberries
  • 1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 2 boneless pork chops (about 1 lb)
  • ½ teaspoon Cajun seasoning

Steps

    1. Preheat grill (or grill pan) on medium. Chop shallot finely (1 tablespoon). Preheat medium saucepan on medium-low 2–3 minutes.
    2. Place 1 tablespoon oil, shallots, and garlic in pan; cook 2–3 minutes until shallots are tender. Add blackberries, vinegar, water, and hoisin sauce; simmer 6–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until blackberries have softened. Press blackberries gently with back of spoon. Strain sauce through fine-mesh strainer, if desired.
    3. Coat pork with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and seasoning (wash hands). Grill pork 5–6 minutes on each side until grill-marked and 145°F. Let pork stand 5 minutes to rest. Top pork with sauce; serve with remaining sauce on the side.
