A very fusion dinner

Main dish: butterflied Cuban style pork chops
Sides: soba noodle, garlic stir-fried green beans














Both my husband and I are big fans of Bobby Flay.
We tried his butterflied Cuban style pork chops tonight.
I followed his recipe with two modifications:
1. replace Swiss cheese with Mozzarella (simply because we like mozzarella better);
2. replace ham with bacon, because we happen to have some bacon in the fridge.

The flavor of the pork chops is so rich with cumin, citrus taste, the cheese, and bacon.
I'll definitely make it again.

Chinese cuisine tip:
Cumin is widely used in many Chinese cuisines to season meat, especially in the northern part of China.
Cumin flavor grilled lamb is a most popular dish in XinJiang area, one of the biggest minority group in China.
