Spiced Pork with Plantains Recipe: Caribbean jerk flavors with a Western twist by adding cumin to the mix.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 4 bone-in pork chops (about 2 lbs. total)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 very ripe (black-spotted) plantains
• 2 tablespoons plus 2 tsp. packed light brown sugar
• 1 can (15 oz.) black beans, warmed
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1/2 serrano chile, sliced thinly
• 1/2 cup cilantro leaves

How To Make Spiced Pork with Plantains

Preheat broiler. Rub oil over pork and set on a broiler pan. Mix spices together and sprinkle evenly on both sides of meat. Broil, turning once, until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Remove from pan and keep warm.

Lay plantains, cut side up, on a baking sheet and sprinkle with sugar. Broil until sugar starts to caramelize and fruit starts to soften, 4 to 8 minutes. Serve pork chops and plantains with black beans, a dollop of sour cream, a few chile slices, and cilantro leaves.
