Ingredients
Serves 4
* 4 bone-in pork loin chops (each 8 to 10 ounces and 1/2 inch thick), trimmed of fat
* Coarse salt and ground pepper
* 1 tablespoon adobo sauce
* 2 tablespoons brown sugar
* 1 mango, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
* 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
* 1 small jalapeno chile (ribs and seeds removed), finely chopped
* 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Directions
1. Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place pork on baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Spread with adobo sauce; sprinkle with brown sugar.
2. Broil until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of a chop, avoiding bone, registers 155 degrees, 8 to 10 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
3. Meanwhile, make salsa: In a medium bowl, combine mango, onion, jalapeno, and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Top chops with salsa, and serve with Arugula Cucumber Salad, if desired.
