This recipe brings a fun flavor profile to the pork — you can’t go wrong with garlic, orange, lime, and cilantro. Whip up a 5-minute marinade in a reseable bag, drop your chops in, and let them hang out in the fridge for a few hours. Then grill them over charcoal, while you wind down with a cold beverage in hand.
Ingredients
Prep Time 5 minutes Cook Time 20 minutes Inactive Time 4 hours Total Time 4 hours 25 minutes
– 2 boneless pork loin chops – 1/8 cup orange juice – 2 small garlic cloves (minced) – 1 tablespoon lime juice – 1 tablespoon olive oil – 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro – ¼ teaspoon salt – ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Ingredients
First step: Get yourself a gallon-size resealable bag and add all ingredients. Seal and shake. Place the whole thing in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
Next step: Grill the chops. This usually takes 8 to 12 minutes per side. I like to grill them for 8 minutes, flip, and then insert a leave-in thermometer. Once the internal temperature reaches 145°F or 63°C, they’re done. Pull the chops off the grill and let them rest for 3 minutes.
