Grilled Pork Chops with Apple and Mango Chutney

I love grilled pork chops and when paired with a fruit chutney they really make my heart sing.  These pork chops are tender, moist, and loaded with flavor even if you are not a chutney lover like I am. We enjoyed this with roasted Italian Brussels sprouts, carrots, and red onions and smashed roasted sweet potatoes.
