“I love the way the Vietnamese grill pork chops,” says Marcia Kiesel, who co-authored The Simple Art of Vietnamese Cooking with chef Binh Duong. “They pound the chops thin for maximum exposure to the heat and then marinate them in a sweet-and-salty sauce that caramelizes as quickly as the pork chops cook on the grill.”

Pairing Suggestion

Pork is often thought of as a hearty meat, but it can actually be quite light. And a sweet marinade like this one pairs well with a brisk, unoaked white. Try a dry Riesling, like the limey 2007 Grant Burge Thorn from Australia or the peachy 2005 Hugel, from France’s Alsace region.
