This is another Cooking Light magazine recipe. They suggest using 1 tbsp of minced jalapeno pepper but I prefer to leave it out. I use canned pineapple.
Ingredients:
4 (4 ounce) boneless center cut pork chops (about 1/2 inch thick)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
cooking spray
4 slices pineapple (about 1/2 inch thick)
1 medium red onion, cut into 1/2 inch thick slices
5/8 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Combine pork and 1 tablespoon juice; let stand for 10 minutes. 2. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add pineapple and onion; cook 4 minutes on each side or until onion is tender. Coarsely chop pineapple and onion; combine in a medium bowl with remaining 2 teaspoons lime juice and 1/8 teaspoon of salt. 3. Sprinkle pork with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. 4. Heat grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add pork; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done.
