1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup thinly sliced shallots
1/4 cup thinly sliced lemongrass
2 tbsp. peanut oil
2 tbsp. soy sauce
1 1/2 tbsp. fish sauce
1 tbsp. ground black pepper
8 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 lb. 1/2″-thick pork blade chops
Cooked white rice and nuoc cham (Vietnamese chili-garlic sauce), for serving

Steps:

1. In blender or food processor, combine sugar, shallots, lemongrass, oil, soy sauce, fish sauce, pepper, and garlic; purée until smooth. Place pork chops in a 9″ × 13″ baking dish and pour over purée; cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 1 hour or overnight. 2. Heat a 12″ cast-iron grill pan over high heat, or preheat BBQ. Working in batches, add chops; cook, turning once, until charred in spots and cooked through, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately with rice and chili-garlic sauce.
