Ingredients

  • 4 Pork Chops
  • 1/3 cup Olive Oil
  • 1 large Garlic Clove, grated
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 1 Jalapeno Pepper, minced finely
  • 1 Lime (zest and juice)
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 2 Tbsp White Tequila (I like Hornitos)

Instructions

  • Combine oil, garlic, honey, jalapeno, lime zest and juice, cumin, salt and tequila.
  • Pour marinade over meat, refrigerate and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes. (Can be left in marinade for up to 3 hours.) Turn meat several times to coat completely while marinating.
  • Grill, saute or bake chops until cooked through, 145 degrees F with an instant read thermometer.
