Poc Chuc Yucatecan Style Grilled Pork Cutlets

Ingredients

• 2 - 3 lbs pork cutlets
• Salt & pepper
• 2 Tbs cumin
• 2 Tbs chili powder
• 1 Tbs garlic powder
• 1 tsp Mexican oregano
• 1⁄2 tsp cayenne
• Juice of 1 orange
• Juice of 1 lime
• Lime wedges for serving

To serve

• Avocados
• Pickled onions
• Refried black beans
• Corn tortillas

Directions

1. Pat cutlets dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. In a bowl, mix together cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne pepper. Stir the spices well and sprinkle on both sides of the cutlets patting with your hand to ensure that it sticks to the meat.
3. Place the meat in a large sealable plastic bag. To the bag, add the juice of 1 orange and the juice of 1 lime. Remove the air from the bag and seal it. Massage the bag to distribute the juices and cover all of the meat. Allow meat to marinate for at least 3 hours but no more than 8 hours.
4. Heat the grill to high. Remove the meat from the bag and place again on a large pan. Brush both sides with olive oil or spray with olive oil. Place the meat on the grill and cook on high for 3-4 minutes on each side. Watch carefully because they cook quickly and each grill is different. You can test one for doneness, the key is not to overcook and keep them moist, even a slight pink color is ok.
