Boneless Pork Chops
4 T olive oil
3T fresh lime juice
1T minced garlic
3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce chops with seeds and about a teaspoon adobo sauce
pepper to taste
*Pour on meat. Ready to grill after marinated for an hour.

Spicy Side Salad:
1 ear grilled corn
1 can black beans drained
1 can fire roasted diced tomatoes drained
1 large diced avocado chopped
green onion
salt and pepper (to taste)
cilantro chopped
Juice of 1 lime
1 tsp. minced garlic
1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce chopped
2 Tbs. Olive Oil

Combine all ingredients and refrigerate a few hours before serving.

Cilantro Lime Rice

For each cup of rice:
