Grilled Weight Watchers Cuban Pork Chops Recipe!

ViI found this Weight Watchers Cuban Pork Chops on a meeting hand outback in 2013, and it is still a family favorite all these years later!   I am personally on My WW Blue plan but the points will be the same on the MyWW Purple plan and MyWW Green.  Pork chops are one of my favorite lean proteins, and it gives me a break from chicken too.   (I have included affiliate links to products I love.

Now, these Weight Watchers Pork Chops are also on WW website -> here as well. I did mine a bit differently and doubled the marinade in the bag and also added another seasoning. as well. I have to say it’s one of those few dishes I first worried the kids wouldn’t eat but they loved it and even had seconds!!

How To Make Weight Watchers Cuban Pork Chops:

 

Start out by chopping up your onion and cilantro up, the amount of these can be done to your family’s taste preference.  

 

Now a good knife is a must-have in any kitchen! I picked up this Aicok Knife (HERE)for under $10, but it’s keeps going out of stock often on Amazon due to how awesome it is.  There are a lot of other top-rated knives on Amazon at a great price.  I am not the best at picking out Knives so when I can read reviews to find a good quality knife it’s a win for me.

In a bowl combine together the topping ingredients and allow it to rest for about 30 minutes. (I placed mine in the fridge while the meat is marinating)

 

In a Gallon Ziploc Bag throw in all your marinade ingredients without the pork chops. 

 

 

Either shake or squish the bag around to mix the marinade ingredients before putting the pork chops in the bag. 

 

Allow the pork to marinate for however long you want mine was about 45 minutes but you could do an overnight marinate.  

 

Either oil or grease your pan or grill to warm up to cook your pork chops. 

 

Allow the pork chops to cook and flip them as well to make sure they cook properly. 

 

Plate and place marinated onions on top of the pork chops for more flavor. 

 

 

 

 

Serve with potatoes or a salad. 

 

 

Now mine came out to 8 Weight Watchers Freestyle points as ours served 5 people.  Be sure to calculate your points, as well as some brands, do vary pointwise.
