Grilled Pork Chops with Peach and Jalapeño Salsa

This is a great summer time idea because its a quick cook on the grill and because the fruit and cilantro are a nice fresh balance to the heat. The salsa is also great served atop chicken tacos, paired with fish, or served as a standalone dip.

::Ingredients::

• 2 medium ripe peaches, peeled, chopped

• ¼ medium red onion, chopped

• 1 medium jalapeño pepper, seeds and veins removed, chopped

• ¼ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes

• 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice

• ½ tsp. hot pepper sauce (like Tabasco)

• 2 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh cilantro

• 4 (4-oz.) center-cut pork chops, lean, boneless

• ¼ tsp. sea salt

• ¼ tsp. ground black pepper

::Directions::

1. Combine peaches, onion, jalapeño, red pepper flakes, lime juice, hot pepper sauce, and cilantro; mix well. Set aside.

2. Preheat grill or broiler on high.

3. Season pork chops with salt and pepper.

4. Grill or broil  chops for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness.

5. Top pork chops evenly with salsa; serve immediately.
