Cuban Style Pork Chops


I got this recipe from my friend a few states over. i was kind of skeptical because of the combonation looked a little odd to me....but omg! these pork chops are great! cooking time does not reflect marinating time.

Steps


Heat the grill to high.
In a large baking dish , mix together 1 / 2 cup orange juice , 1 / 4 cup lime juice , 3 tablespoons oregano , the garlic , cumin , and canola oil.
Add the pork and turn to coat.
Cover and let marinate for at least 15 minutes and up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Remove the pork from the marinade and pat dry.
Place the chops on a flat surface , cut-side up and season with salt and pepper.
Place 1 slice of cheese , 2 slices of ham , a few slices of pickle and another slice of cheese on 1 half of the chop.
Fold over brush the top with oil and season with salt and pepper.
Repeat with remaining ingredients.
Place the chops on the grill , oil side down and grill until golden brown , 3 to 4 minutes.
Flip the chops over and continue grilling until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese has melted , 2 to 3 minutes longer.
Whisk the remaining orange and lime juices , oregano , and the cilantro with the olive oil and salt and pepper , to taste.
Spoon over.
