6 Pork Loin Chops {1 1/2 inch thick for each pork chops}

For the marinade:

1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger {1 Tablespoons fresh ginger}
1/4 crushed red pepper {optional}
3 garlic cloves (chopped)
1/8 teaspoon ground pepper

For the Pineapple Salsa:

2 cups fresh pineapple (diced)
1 jalapeno (seeds removed, chopped)
1/2 red bell pepper (seeds removed, diced)
1/4 cup red onion (chopped)
1/2 of a lime (juiced)
Dash of salt

Method

1
In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the soy sauce, ground ginger, crushed red pepper, garlic and pepper.
2
In a large ziplock bag combine the pork chops and the marinade and refrigerate for 2 hours, making sure to massage the marinade into the pork chops.
3
Pre-heat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
4
Place pork on the grill and let sit for 6-7 minutes. Flip the pork to the other side and continue cooking until it reaches an internal cooking temperature of 145 degrees {the total time will depend on the thickness and type of pork chop you use}, about another 6-7 minutes.
5
Remove pork from the grill and cover loosely with foil. Let rest at least 3 minutes to ensure juicy pork.
6
Place the grilled pork chops on each plate and top with a spoonful of pineapple salsa on each pork chop.

Notes

You can use whatever cut of pork chop you like but keep in mind cooking time will depend on the thickness. You will want it to reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.
