Celiac.com 01/06/2017 – Spend any time in Japan, and you’ll realize the important role of miso in Japanese cuisine. Miso makes a great marinade for fish, pork, chicken and even beef. This recipe uses red miso, sugar, Worcestershire and sesame oil to create a simple marinade that works great for pork or chicken, or just about anything else you like.

Ingredients:

• 2 1½ inch thick, bone-in pork chops
• ¼ cup red miso paste
• 2½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1¼ teaspoon sesame oil
• ½ teaspoon sugar

Directions:
In a mixing bowl, whisk miso, Worcestershire, oil and sugar.

Spread over chops, and allow them to rest for about an hour.

Broil chops, turning once, about 4-5 minutes each side for medium.

Let rest 5-10 minutes, then slice and serve.
