Combine all but cilantro into a marinade

Saute 2 medium onions sliced 1/8" thick in olive oil over low-medium heat for 20 minutes until GB&D (that's Golden Brown and Delicious)

Marinate thin sliced pork chops for 1 hour, remove from marinade and sprinkle with a little more salt and pepper, grill over high heat for 5 minutes (starting just before onions are finished).

Pour leftover marinade into onions and deglaze, bringing to simmer to cook and thicken, about 5 minutes, adding chopped fresh cilantro right near the end.

Pour onions and sauce over pork chops and serve.
