This was last night's dinner. It was so good. Of
course, up the amount of hot sauce or chile that you
want. I made it mild because my 7 year old was going
to eat some of it and he has no tolerance for chiles,
not yet anyway.

Also, since I am on Level 2 Somersizing, I can't eat
the rice so I ate the pork and I made some vegetable
for myself. My DH loved it. My son ate all his pork.
That is a compliment in this house!

     1/4  cup           soy sauce

   2      tbsp          rice vinegar

   1      tsp           togarishi -- Jap. chile powder
   2      cups          cooked basmati rice

note

Remove fat from pork chops. Discard.

Place pork in a zip-top bag. Place 1/2 of soy sauce,
ginger, scallion, brown sugar sub, rice vinegar and
garlic powder in bag and mix the whole thing up. Make
sure to coat the pork well. Place rest of each of the
sauce ingredients into a small jar and cover and shake
well. Reserve for later.

Let pork marinate for 1 hour.

Preheat a stovetop grill. When hot, spray pork with a
bit of cooking spray. Place on grill and cook until
cooked through and no longer pink. This should take
anywhere from 5 minutes per side, to 8 minutes per
side, depending on thickness of chops.

When cooked, remove from grill and turn off burners.

Let cool a bit and then slice into small pieces (about
1" in size).

Place rice in a big bowl. Top with cooked green peas.
Mix in remaining sauce ingredients in jar. Mix all
ingredients well.

To serve: Place 1/2 of mixture in two serving bowls.
Top each with half the cooked pork. Drizzle some of
the remaining sauce (if there is any) over the pork
and rice mixture. Serve.

Possible garnishes: chopped scallion, chopped cilantro
or chopped mint

NOTES : Risa's notes:

* If you are on a low carb plan, serve yours without
the rice or peas and use cooked mushrooms for the
peas. 

If you Somersizing, same way - serve pork with cooked
mushrooms and other non-starchy vegetables.
