2. In a small bowl, combine honey, lemon peel, lemon juice, mint, oil, salt, and cayenne pepper. Pour over chops. Seal bag; turn to coat chops. Marinate in the refrigerate for 4 to 24 hours, turning bag occasionally. Drain chops, discarding marinade.

3. For a charcoal grill, place chops on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals. Grill for 11 to 13 minutes or until chops are slightly pink in center and juices run clear (160 degrees F), turning once halfway through grilling. (For a gas grill, preheat grill.
