Today's recipe

Ingredients:
• 4 boneless pork chops
• 8 strips bacon
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
• 1 1/2 teaspoons chili pepper flakes
• 2 to 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
• Spicy Mango-Basil Relish (see recipe below)

Instructions:
Wrap 2 strips of bacon around the outside edge of each pork chop, (or wrap around pork going around as pictured here), securing in several places with toothpicks. Mix together the soy sauce, lime juice, chili pepper flakes and garlic. Reserve half of the mixture for basting and place half in a shallow baking dish. Add pork to dish and turn to coat both sides. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, turning pork occasionally. (Marinate longer for more flavor.) Remove from marinade, discard marinade, and place pork on grill over medium coals. Cook for 12 to 16 minutes total, basting with reserved marinade several times, until pork is 160°F., as measured with an instant-read thermometer. Serve with a large dollop of Spicy Mango-Basil Relish.

Spicy Mango-Basil Relish:
In a small bowl, stir together:
1 peeled, pitted and chopped mango
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper.

Makes 4 Servings.
