Makes: 6 servings

Prep: 15 minutes

Marinate: 2 hours

Grill: 8 minutes

6 boneless pork top loin chops, cut 3/4 inch thick

1/4 cup finely chopped red onion

1/4 cup lime juice

2 fresh serrano or jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped

1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

1 teaspoon cumin seed, crushed

4 plum tomatoes, chopped

1 small cucumber, seeded and chopped

2 green onions, sliced

2 tablespoons snipped fresh cilantro

1 tablespoon honey

3 tablespoons jalapeno jelly

Trim fat from chops. Place chops in a plastic bag set in a shallow dish. For marinade, in a small bowl combine onion, lime juice, serrano peppers, sesame oil, and cumin seed. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the marinade for salsa. Pour the remaining marinade over chops; seal bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours, turning bag occasionally.

For salsa, in a medium bowl combine the 2 tablespoons marinade, the tomatoes, cucumber, green onions, cilantro, and honey. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Drain chops, reserving marinade. Transfer the marinade to a small saucepan. Add the jalapeno jelly to marinade; cook and stir until mixture boils. Set aside.

Grill chops on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 8 to 11 minutes or until chops are slightly pink in center and juices run clear, turning once and brushing occasionally with jelly mixture the last 5 minutes of grilling. (Or, broil on the unheated rack of a broiler pan 3 to 4 inches from the heat for 6 to 8 minutes, turning once and brushing occasionally with jelly mixture the last 5 minutes of broiling.) Serve the chops with salsa.
