This is one of those recipes that will leave people asking you what chef school you attended. It's full of anti-oxidants, simple to make, and extremely tasty! I broil the chops instead of doing them on the grill...

1. Ingredients
- 4 bone-in center-cut pork chops, trimmed of fat
- 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons dry sherry (see Ingredient note)
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed

- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon lime juice

2. Cooking Directions
- To marinate: Place pork chops in a large sealable plastic bag. Whisk soy sauce, sherry, garlic, brown sugar and crushed red pepper in a small bowl. Add the marinade to the bag, seal and turn to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- To prepare relish: About 20 minutes before grilling the pork, combine blueberries, shallot, chile, cilantro, lime juice, ginger and salt in a small bowl.
- Preheat grill to high. Remove the pork chops from the marinade (discard marinade). Grill the chops 3 to 5 minutes per side. Let them rest for 5 minutes before serving with the relish.
