HOW TO COOK IT |
|
|
|
Preheat the oven 190C/375F/ Gas Mark 5.
1. Rub 4 tbsp lemon infused extra virgin olive oil into the pork chops and leave them to sit for an hour or so. Meanwhile, put the couscous into a bowl and cover with 300mls boiling water. Add a splash of lemon infused extra virgin olive oil and leave it to soak for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Put the red pepper strips into a pan and add the garlic, honey and white wine vinegar. Cover the pan and simmer over a medium heat for 10 minutes until the juice starts to to come out of the peppers and they begin to soften. When this happens, turn up the heat and reduce the liquid until it is almost a glaze. Add half of the remaining lemon infused extra virgin olive oil and mix the pepper mixture with the couscous. Season well.
4. Heat a large frying pan, season the pork and fry it for 5 minutes on each side until golden. Put the pork in the oven for 5 minutes and then leave to rest in a warm place for a further 5 minutes.
5. During the porks resting time, make the vinaigrette. Mix the remaining lemon infused extra virgin olive oil with the red onion, spring onions, coriander, chilli, lemon juice and zest.
6. Heat the couscous and serve with the pork chops and vinaigrette. |
