Low Carb Grilled Adobo Pork Chops-3g carbs

Ingredients:

6 boneless pork loin chops, cut 3/4 inch thick
2 tbsp packed brown sugar
2 tbsp oil
2 tbsp orange juice
2 tbsp snipped fresh cilantro
1 tbsp cider vinegar
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp dried oregano, crushed
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, optional
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
3 cloves garlic, minced

Directions:

1. Trim fat from chops. Place chops in a plastic bag and set in a shallow dish.

2. For marinade; in a small bowl combine brown sugar, oil, orange juice, cilantro, vinegar, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, red pepper (if desired), cinnamon and garlic. Pour over chops and seal bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 24 hours, turning occasionally.

3. Drain chops, discarding marinade. For a charcoal grill, grill chops on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium hot coals for 12 to 15 minutes or until chops are done (160 degrees F.) turning once halfway through grilling. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place chops on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.) Makes 6 servings.
