Grilled Pork Chops and Zucchini Fritters



Pork. My favorite Saturday night protein. Tonight we grilled. I marinated the center cut, bone-in pork chops in a mixture of 2 tbsp. Olive oil, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1 tsp brown sugar, 1 tbsp soy sauce, salt, and pepper. 
They were grilled perfectly.

We had Cole's corn on the cob because you have to eat it whenever you can. It is just that good.


Then I decided to add Zucchini Fritters to the table. Easy and quick and really good. 

Simple preparation-
One zucchini, chopped pretty small and one shallot also chopped small. Mix them in a bowl with 2 eggs, 1/4 cup of flour, 1/4 Parmesan Cheese, 2 tbsp fresh chopped parsley (or you can use dried parsley), salt, and pepper. The batter should be thick enough to drop spoonfuls.

Heat vegetable oil, or whatever oil you like to use, in a large sauté pan and heat the oil. Drop the batter into the hot oil with a soup spoon. Remove the fritters when they are browned on all sides to a dish lined with paper towels. Salt them immediately after they come out of the oil.
