Ingredients

  • 2 9 oz porks steaks, cut from the loin or butt
  • 1 tsp kosher salt (2/3 tsp table salt)
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp finely chopped rosemary
  • finely minced zest from 1/4 lemon, 2 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

  • Salt and pepper the meat, the rule of thumb is 1 tsp kosher salt per pound and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper. I you use table salt cut back to 2/3 tsp. Let it sit for 20 minutes while you get the rest ready.
  • combine the garlic, rosemary, lemon zest and juice to make the marinade
  • Put the chicken in the marinade and make sure it is coated well. Let it marinade for at least an hour to overnight.
  • There are many ways to cook this, on the grill, grill pan, broil, fry remember three things.
  • Let the pork come to room temperature before cookingUse high heat. Easiest way is a grill pan or skillet that is heated smoking hot. Best flavor is grilled over fire.Don't overcook it. !70 degrees is fine and hopefully you have some nice char.
  • I like to serve it with beans and spinach. Oven roasted potatoes are also a great choice and make sure you use the marinade from the pork on the potatoes.
  • You can also cut the pork in pieces before salting and marinating then skewer it and make pork souvlaki.
