We love this recipe. So easy, quick and delicious. And it's very impressive to serve these beautiful chops piled up high on a serving platter. In a pinch, you can make due with a grill pan on the kitchen stove, but much better on a charcoal barbecue outside. Be sure not to overcook, they should be pink and moist on the inside.
