Chili Lime pork chops with roasted veggies

With our busy schedules simple, fast, and easy win when it comes to meals. Sure, there are some days that I will spend a lot of time on a meal, but most of the time it needs to be done within 45 minutes tops.

This one fits the bill; I walked in the door from CrossFit at 5:20 this was on the table at 6:05. And that includes shower time.

Chili Lime Pork Chops
one pork chop per person. (You can go thin cut or regular depending on your taste. Thin cut cook faster but I like a thicker chop.)
Zest and juice of one lime (I use two limes, but that's because I cook for 8 people and need to do two batches of chops)
Chili powder
Salt
Pepper
Garlic powder
Coconut oil

Rub both sides of the chop with a mixture of the spices. Go heavier on the chili powder or add red pepper flakes if you like heat.
Heat 1 - 2 tbsp of coconut oil over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is melted, add the chops to the pan. Cook for 4 - 7 minutes per side (depends on the thickness of the chop).
Remove the chops and deglaze the pan with the lime juice, zest, and about 1/2 tbsp chili powder.
Add the chops back into the pan and throw a lid on for about a minute to let the flavors marry.

Roasted Veggies
Preheat oven to 375. Chop your choice of veggies and put them in a large bowl. Pouar bout 1/4 C olive oil and salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste over the veggies. Mix it all up and spread them out on a baking sheet. Put it in the oven for 30 - 45 minutes. Check for tenderness about 30 minutes and put them back in if you want them more tender.

Easy and yummy! Enjoy :)
