Ok, so this isn't a picture of the actual pork chop dish. We gobbled it up so fast I forgot to take a picture before it was too late. Oh well, this recipe is probably better for you than all those margaritas anyway.
Glaze
1/3 Cup orange marmalade (I used Smucker's Simply Fruit)
2 Tbsp tequila (we just happened to have some in the house - leftovers from a party)
1 Tsp grated fresh ginger
1 small jalapeno chopped
Combine all of the above in a small bowl, mix well
4 boneless pork loin chops
Grill chops over medium heat for 7-9 minutes, turning once and brushing with glaze during the last half of grilling.
These had a great flavor and although jams and jellies are not the healthiest, the orange marmalade I used was 40 calories and 8 grams of sugar for a tablespoon. The pork wasn't saturated in the glaze though and we actually had some left over. You could probably do something similar with orange juice and honey if you don't like the idea of using "spreadable fruit".
