Recipe Introduction
This is one of the few recipes I have that uses wine - my first try. It really does seem to make a difference in the taste of the meat.
List of Ingredients
Ingredients:
1 T vegetable oil
4 center cut pork rib chops (1/2" thick)
2 red or green jalepeno chiles, seeded, finely chopped *
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/4 c fish sauce
4 t sugar
1/4 c chopped dry roasted peanuts
1/4 c chopped fresh cilantroRecipe
DIRECTIONS:
Heat in large non stick skillet over medium high heat until hot. Add pork chops; cook 8-10 minutes or until pork chops no longer pink in center. Turn ONCE! Add chiles and garlic into skillet. Cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes or until softened, stirring occasionally. Stir in fish sauce and sugar. Bring to a boil; boil 1 minute. Pour over pork chops; sprinkle with cilantro and peanuts.
TIP: Leave seeds and veins in for spicier version.
BEER/WINE: Why not match a Thai beer such as Sinha with these chops? A medium bodied red wine such as Rhone Valley in France also works well.

Serve these pork chops cooked over jasmine rice. For a quick salad to accompany the chops, top greens with slivered green onions and thinly sliced cucumbers. Dress it with oil and vinegar mixture made with rice wine vinegar and a little grated fresh ginger.
