Grilled Chili Chops

Total time: 30 minutes
      Do 2 boneless chops or 3, thinner, bone-in chops.  It all depends on availability and your appetite.  The marinade adds a zesty flavor to the pork and helps keep them tender as they cook.  Remember, slightly pink is okay, too done dries them out, and makes them rather tough.

 Ingredients:

• 2 - 4 pork chops, 12oz total (360gr) 
• 1 clove garlic minced or crushed
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp chili powder  or more
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 1 tbs soy sauce
• 1 tbs olive oil

 Instructions:

• Mince garlic. 
• Mix garlic, oregano, chili powder, ketchup, soy sauce and oil. 
• Spoon over chops and let marinate for 10 - 20 minutes. 
• Cook on barbecue for 5 - 8 minutes a side or until done.  Should be slightly pink near bone when done - take a peak (techniques). 
• Or fry in nonstick skillet over medium-high heat the same amount of time. 
• Baste both sides of chops with marinade once when turning.
