Grill Pork Cutlets with apple chutney

Another simple and easy way to prepare a good meal for my family.
A quick homemade chutney adds a little sweetness to juicy grill pork cutlets.
They're perfect for a family-friendly weekend meal.
Recently I do my feed shopping (Coles) on Saturday morning after having a run with my hubby.
Obviously most the good are on special and heaps of meat on reduced
and also my shopping bill ends up being cheaper.
This is always what i want.
A cheap meal but everyone enjoy it.
