Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
- Preheat the grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat.

- Grill the chops on both sides to an internal temperature of 145°F (65°C) using a thermometer. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
