Spice Rubbed Pork Chops with Grilled Zucchini

Seasoning the pork in the morning and grill the meat later!


1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1.5 teaspoons ground cumin
Coarse salt and pepper
4 bone-in pork loin chops





2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, plus more for grilling
3 medium zucchini, think sliced lengthwise
2 limes
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese


1. In a large zip lock bag, combine coriander, brown sugar, cumin, and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper.  Add pork and 1 tablespoon oil and toss to coat.  Refrigerate for at least 8 hours (or up to 1 day)


2. Heat grill or grill pan to medium- high; clean and lightly oil hot gril.  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 1 tablespoon oil, season with salt and pepper.  Grill until tender, 2-3 minutes per side.  Grate 1 tablespoon lime zest, then cut limes into wedges.  Transfer the zucchini to a serving plate and sprinkle with zest and feta.  


Serve zucchini and pork with lime wedges.
