Coffee-Marinated Pork Slices
2 comments » 
A while back I was browsing through my friend Catherine’s blog: Living The Gourmet and she had just posted this recipe that looked so delicious, so I ran to the store, bought the ingredients and fried it up in a pan. (Actually I marinated it in the morning before work and then cooked it up after work) but you get the idea. I made only a few adjustments because A) I forgot to get a jalapeno and B) we like a lot of spices!
Coffee-Marinated Pork Slices
Yield: 3 servings
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds boneless pork loin-sliced about 1/4" thick
1/2 cup black coffee
2 tablespoons apricot preserves
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin
Juice of 2 limes
Zest of 1 limeDirections:
Combine all the marinade ingredients in a large zip-loc bag, add in the pork, zip the bag tight and marinate for at least 1 hour but up to 8 hours. I made mine in the morning before work and then cooked it up that night. Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and place the marinated pork slices in one layer. Cook for about 5 minutes per side. Serve with rice, potatoes or sweet potatoes.
Thank you, Catherine, for sharing!!
