Ginger Lime Pork Chops image

I was looking through one of my old cookbooks for some new inspiration and came across this recipe. Since I had some beautiful fresh limes, I gave it a go. The meat comes out so beautifully tender and flavourful. The minimum marinating time is 1 hour but if you can marinate the chops longer, by all means do so. Marinating time is included in the prep time.
