Grilled Pork Chops with Cilantro Salsa Recipe

Grilled Pork Chops with Cilantro Salsa

1 1/2 cups cubed cantaloupe

1 cup chopped tomatoes

½ cup chopped green pepper

2 Tbsp. thawed limeade concentrate

2 Tbsp. chopped green onion

2 Tbsp. minced fresh cilantro

¼ tsp. salt

6 bone-in pork loin chops (7 oz. each)

Pepper to taste

 

In a large bowl combine the cantaloupe, tomatoes, green pepper, limeade, onion, cilantro and salt.  Cover and refrigerate until serving.

Season pork with pepper.  Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, lightly coat the grill rack.  Grill chops, covered, over medium heat or boil 4-5 inches from the heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145 F.  Let meat stand for 5 minutes before serving.      6 serving
