Pork Chops and Melon Salsa

Just in time for summer!  Since it is officially summer now, its time to fire up the BBQ grill!  This dish is easy, fast, hot and refreshing all a the same time.  The sweetness of the fruit and the blast of cilantro with lime juice along with the spice on the meat just makes you wanna lay back under the umbrella at the pool!


Pork Chop Rub:

• 1 1/2  teaspoons  chili powder
• 1/2  teaspoon  garlic powder
• 1/2  teaspoon  salt
• 1/4  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
• 4  (4-ounce) boneless pork chops,

Fire up the BBQ grill!  Combine spices in a small bowl. Rub mixture over both sides of pork chops.  Turn heat to medium and place chops on the grill.  Cook for about 4 minutes each side or until desired degree of doneness.

Melon Salsa ingredients:

• 1  cup  chopped seedless watermelon
• 1  cup  chopped honeydew melon
• 2  tablespoons  finely chopped sweet onion
• 1  tablespoon  finely chopped jalapeño pepper
• 1  tablespoon  chopped fresh cilantro
• 1  tablespoon  fresh lime juice
• 1/8  teaspoon  salt

Remember when chopping the melons remember you are making salsa not fruit salad, slightly smaller pieces make it easier to get bites of salsa and spicy pork chop! Mix, spoon over cooked pork chops and devour!
