Lynn's Citrus Pork Chops

 

2 x Chipotle Chiles, Dried
1/2 cup Frozen Orange Juice, Thawed
1/4 cup Lemon Juice
1 tsp Salt
1 x Orange, Medium, **
6 x Pork Loin Or Rib Chops, *
1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
2 tbl Orange Peel, Grated
1 x Clove Garlic

 Method :
* Pork chops should be cut about 1/2-inch thick.
** Orange should be cut into 6 wedges.
Cover chiles with water. Let stand until softened, about 1 hour. Drain and finely chop. Place pork chops in a shallow glass or plastic dish.
Place chiles and remaining ingredients, except the orange, in a blender container. Cover and blend, at low speed, until smooth. Pour over chops.
Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours, spooning marinade over chops occasionally. Set oven control to broil. Remove chops from marinade and sit marinade aside. Place chops on rack in a broiler pan. Broil, with tops of the chops 3 to 5 inches from the heat, until light brown, about 10 minutes. Turn the chops and brush with the marinade. Broil until chops are done, about 5 minutes longer. Garnish with orange wedges and serve.
