PORK CHOPS WITH TAMARIND AND GINGER
Seasoning pork chops with a paste of fresh ginger, chile, cumin and tamarind gives the brawny meat a deeply spicy, sour flavor that gets more intense the longer it marinates. Then the excess marinade is mixed into the drippings to make a heady sauce. If you can't find tamarind concentrate (also sometimes called tamarind extract), lime juice will supply the sour notes, though without the same fruity complexity.

SOY AND GINGER MARINATED PORK CHOPS
I got this recipe out of Martha Stewart Living magazine, and have made it a number of times. The pork comes out so juicy and tender, no matter what kind of chops I use. To be truthful, I only use the marinade, and I cook the chops on the BBQ. I normally use boneless loin chops, about 1" thick, and marinate them for about an hour. I use only half the sugar because I don't like a sweet meat, and it helps keep the chops from burning on the grill. We love this served with rice.
