Basil Garlic Grilled Pork Chops

We're nearing the end of the growing season and soon I will be taking the rest of my herbs in and drying them to use all winter.  We'll try this first with fresh herbs though.

4 8oz. pork chops
1 lime, juiced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 C. chopped fresh basil
salt and pepper to taste

Toss the pork chops with the lime juice in a bowl until evenly covered.  Toss with garlic and basil.  Season the chops to taste with salt and pepper.  Set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, lightly oil the grate.

Cook the pork chops on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center, 5 to 10 minutes per side.  An instant read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees.
