  Grilled Pork Steaks with Sweet Zucchini Relish

Ingredients:

2 Schenker Farms Pastured Pork Steaks

1 packet Chef Mark’s Sea Salt & Cracked Black Pepper seasoning

1 medium sized zucchini, chopped

1 small onion, chopped

2 dashes cinnamon

1/3 cup sugar

½ cup golden raisins (optional)

1T real butter

 Directions:

Between farming and raising a family, we are always on the go in the summer!  This dish is quick, easy, extremely tasty and best of all…does not involve the drive-thru. 

Place chopped onion, zucchini, cinnamon, sugar, butter and raisins in covered pan on medium heat.  While that is cooking, season pork steaks with Chef Mark’s Sea Salt & Cracked Black Pepper Seasoning and place on grill.  Cook zucchini about 7-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until soft and done.  Depending on thickness, pork steaks will take 8-12 minutes to cook.  Serve warm.  Serves 2-4.

Recommended Side Dishes: Warm Whole Wheat Rolls and fresh garden salad.

How Kids Can Help:  Wash and chop zucchini while Mom or Dad is chopping the onions.

Cooking Tip: Thaw pork steaks in the refrigerator or the sink—NEVER the microwave.  Using a microwave to thaw lean meat (of any kind) tends to “rubberize” it.

Happy Eating from all of us at Schenker Family Farms!
