How to make
Chipotle-Lime Marinated Grilled Pork Chops
Place chops in a large self-sealing plastic bag; combine remaining ingredients in a small bowl and pour ever chops.
Seal bag and refrigerate for 4-24 hours.
Remove chops from marinade (discarding marinade) and grill over medium-hot coals for a total of 12-15 minutes, turning to brown evenly.
Serve chops immediately.
*Save one tablespoon adobo sauce for Pinto Beans with Bacon, if desired.
**To rehydrate, cover chile with hot water for 10 minutes, let stand at room temperature. Drain and use as directed. Seed chile, if desired, to reduce piquancy a bit.
*** Always wear rubber gloves when handling hot chiles.
