Summer Pork Chops with Corn-Mango Salsa
Ingredients
  • 1/3
    cup olive oil
  • 2
    tablespoons blackened steak seasoning
  • 2
    teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1
    large onion, thinly sliced
  • 6
    boneless pork loin chops, cut 1 -inch thick
  • Corn-Mango Salsa
  • Steamed green and yellow beans (optional)
Directions

1. For marinade, in a resealable plastic bag, combine oil, steak seasoning, and garlic powder; mix well. Add onion; mix well. Add chops; seal bag and turn to coat chops. Marinate in the refrigerator for 12 hours or overnight.

2. Drain chops; discard marinade. For a charcoal grill, grill chops on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium heat for 14 to 18 minutes or until 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; grill as above.) Serve chops with Corn-Mango Salsa and, if desired, green and yellow beans. Makes 6 servings.

This is my first ever review and I got the rating wrong--I meant to give it 5 stars, not 1!! This is excellent, I have made it 3 times now for guests and everyone loves it. I saute the onion marinade and serve it with the pork for those who really like the spices--the salsa tones it down for those who don't like much heat. Made my own blackened spice mix, 1T.paprika,1/2t. each oregano, thyme & cayenne,1 1/2t. each salt & pepper. Used pork loin slices, no bone that way.
