6 Tbsp barbecue sauce, Chipotle flavored

2 Tbsp cilantro, fresh chopped (plus more for garnish if desired)

1 tsp orange zest

Off heat, coat grill rack or a large grill pan with cooking spray; heat grill or set pan over medium heat.

 

In a medium bowl, combine barbecue sauce, cilantro and orange zest. Remove 2 tablespoons of sauce to a small bowl and stir in orange juice; set aside. Add chops to medium bowl; toss to coat with sauce.
