Put the pork chops into a shallow baking dish. Prepare the apple cider marinade: In a medium-size bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients. Pour over the pork chops, cover with plastic warp, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 or up to 24 hours, turning the chops occasionally. Preheat the grill to medium-hot. Place a vegetable grill rack on top and brush with oil. Prepare the red onion salsa: Brush the onion slices and garlic cloves with the oil. Grill the onion and garlic for about 6 minutes, or until lightly browned and softened. Remove from the grill and set aside until cool. Coarsely chop the onions and garlic and put into a medium-size bowl. Add the remaining salsa ingredients and mix well. Set aside. Grill the chops for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until just cooked through. Remove to a platter and serve accompanied by the salsa.

Serves 4 to 6
