Grilled Pork Chops Diablo Recipe

Grilled Pork Chops Diablo Recipe

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 2 tablespoons Safeway SELECT Verdi Olive Oil
  • 4 boneless center-cut pork loin chops, trimmed of fat
  • 2 medium-size ripe avocados, pitted, peeled, and sliced
  • Cilantro sprigs
  • Orange wedges
  1. In a small bowl, mix chili powder, cumin, garlic, onion, and oil. Spread about 1 tablespoon of the chili mixture on each side of each chop. Place each chop between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. With a heavy, flat-sided mallet, pound meat firmly but gently all over to a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
  2. Place pork on a lightly oiled grill 4 to 6 inches above a solid bed of hot coals (you can hold your hand at grill level for only 2 to 3 seconds) or over high heat on a gas grill. Close lid on gas grill. Cook, turning once, until pork is well browned on both sides and no longer pink in center; cut to test (5 to 6 minutes).
  3. Serve pork with avocado slices; garnish with cilantro sprigs and orange wedges. Squeeze juice from the oranges over meat and avocado to taste.
