Lime Garlic and Cilantro Pork Chops

I love using citrus during grilling season because of the fresh tangy taste it adds to foods. The company makes blends for drinks as well as food. You know those times when you want to make a dry rub instead of wet. Also, you want citrus flavor without adding more liquid to water down ingredients, true lemon, lime, or orange is perfect.

The marinade for these grilled pork chops has oil yet no water. Be sure to rub the marinade into the chops before placing in the refrigerator. Let them chill for at least one hour but 4 is better. The flavor when removed from the grill is full-on lime flavor with a hint of cumin. Add salt before cooking or after removing from grill. Start with 1/4 teaspoon at a time if you’ve never used as not to overpower your food. Get use to what this product does before it is serious citrus.
