Pork Chops with a miso mustard sauce and sesame green beans
I am really pleased that the yellow sticker section in my local supermarket has started to get used again and this week I managed to grab some lovely pork chops for £2.71 for 6. So, I kept 4 out for dinner and chucked a couple in the freezer for another day. After seeing a couple of Asian inspired pork recipes over the last month, I adapted them to suit my budget and our tastes. I hope you all enjoy this easy pork chop recipe as much as we have.
This is a really quick and easy recipe, making it perfect for a mid-week dinner for a busy family. First up, mix all the miso sauce ingredients in a bowl. Rub a good spoonful of the sauce over each chop and save the rest for serving.
4 tsp Black Sesame seeds, 2 tsp Sesame Oil, 4 tsp White Miso Paste, 2 tbsp Mirin, 2 tbsp Caster Sugar, Juice of 1 Lime, Juice of half a grapfruit, 2 tsp English Mustard
I used a griddle pan and heated up the oil and then cooked the chops for about 5 minutes on each side. If you don't have a griddle and frying pan would work just as well.

I chucked the beans into a saucepan of boiling water and cooked for two minutes. Once the chops were cooked I rested them under some foil. I then added the beans and sesame seeds to the griddle pan and cooked for a further 2 minutes.

I served the chops on top of the beans and drizzled some sauce over the top.
