Background

These grilled spiced pork steaks are perfect for summer BBQs, year-round parties and midweek family suppers as it’s very easy to prepare; the marinating can be (and should be) done in advance; the grilling takes only a few minutes. Serve it with a fresh, minty youghurt sauce spooned on top and a crunchy green salad, or a new potato salad/mash.

Ingredients

4 pork shoulder steaks
Salt & pepper
For the marinade:
2 Tbsp olive oil
Juice and grated zest of 1 lemon
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
2 cloves of garlic, minced

Instructions

Using a tenderiser, flatten the meat 1 cm thickness. Put them in a shallow glass dish next to each other.
Mix the other ingredients in a bowl and brush the pork on both sides. Pour over the remaining marinade. Chill for at least 2 hours.
Heat your grill/bbq or griddle pan. Season the pork with salt & pepper and cook over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side, brushing with the marinade a couple of times.
When the steaks are charred and cooked through, transfer them to a plate. Rest for 5 minutes before serving.
