Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 2 tablespoons Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 whole Lime
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to create the chili rub.
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Lightly brush each pork chop with olive oil and rub them generously with the chili rub, ensuring an even coating on both sides.
Place the pork chops on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Cut the lime into wedges. Squeeze fresh lime juice over each pork chop for a burst of flavor.
Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
