Using a flat-bottomed mug or a heavy skillet, lightly crush. Place in a small bowl and add vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 cup oil. Season with salt and pepper and whisk until sugar and salt are dissolved. Set marinade aside.
• Toss jalapeños and 1 Tbsp. oil in a small bowl to coat; season with salt and pepper. Pat pork chops dry again (the salt will have drawn out more moisture) and rub with remaining 2 Tbsp. oil.

GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH JALAPEñO MARINADE

Steps:

• Place the chicken breasts in a flat rimmed dish.
• Using a swivel-bladed paring knife, pare away the zest or thin outer layer of two of the oranges and one of the limes and the lemon. Set the zest aside. Squeeze the four oranges, the two limes and the lemon. You will need one and one-half cups of orange juice, one-fourth cup lime juice and two tablespoons of lemon juice. Set aside.
• Put the onions, garlic and jalapeno pepper into the container of a food processor. Blend briefly (about 20 pulses off and on). Do not overblend or make a puree.
• Add the zest of the oranges, the lime and the lemon. Pulse (that is to say, turn the machine on and off at quick intervals) in order to blend, about 10 times.
• Add the orange, lime and lemon juices, sage, parsley, coriander and the olive oil. Blend thoroughly, about one minute.
• Pour half the marinade in the bottom of a dish large enough to hold the breast halves in one layer. Place the breast halves skin-side up in the dish. Spoon the remaining marinade over. Let stand at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
• As the breasts marinate, preheat a charcoal, gas or electric grill to medium heat. The grill should be scrubbed and scraped as clean as possible.
• When ready to cook, brush the grill evenly with oil. Remove the breast pieces and place them skin-side down on the grill. Brush the top of each half with a little of the marinade. Let cook 10 minutes. Remove the pieces from the grill and dip them once more in the marinade. Return the pieces skin-side down onto the grill but give them a quarter lateral turn to form a pattern. Grill five minutes longer.
• Dip the pieces once more in the marinade and arrange the pieces skin-side up on the grill. Continue cooking five to 10 minutes longer, depending on the thickness of the pieces.

JALAPEñO GRILLED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Make the pork chops: In a food processor, blitz the jalapeños, garlic, cilantro stems, rice vinegar, olive oil, salt and sugar until smooth. Place the pork chops in a large bowl or resealable container and pour the marinade over them; turn the chops to evenly coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours.
• While the chops marinate, prepare a charcoal grill for direct high-heat cooking, or heat a gas grill to medium-high.
• Make the relish: In a small bowl, toss the jalapeño, red onion, rice vinegar, salt, sugar and 2 tablespoons water. Set aside to quick-pickle until ready to serve, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
• Carefully grease the grill grate: Use tongs to grip a wadded paper towel dipped in oil and then rub the grates with the oiled towel. With the marinade clinging to them, place the pork chops on the hot greased grate. Grill until the chops are charred at the edges and no longer pink in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes per side. The meat is ready to flip when it releases easily from the grates. (If using a gas grill, close the lid between flips.) Alternatively, cook the chops on the stovetop in batches. Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high. Add enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, and heat until shimmering. Add the chops, with the marinade clinging to them, to the pan. Sear until browned and caramelized at the edges and no longer pink in the middle, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Discard any remaining marinade.
• Serve the chops with the relish and cilantro on top. If you'd like, serve rice alongside.
