This Vietnamese Grilled Lemongrass Pork Chop is a staple protein choice when it comes to “Cơm Tấm”. The marinade itself is pretty straight forward, but the important thing to go with it is the fish sauce. They complement each other very well especially when eaten with rice or rice noodles. Salad is a side to balance the dish.
