GREEK-ALICIOUS GRILLED PORK CHOPS



Greek-Alicious Grilled Pork Chops image

I wanted to develop a sweet and tangy Grecian-style marinade for pork chops on the grill. The honey also helps tenderize the meat and gives it a beautiful browning ability. I hope you enjoy this! (I didn't want marinade to have a strong garlic flavor, which is why I chose garlic salt.) Note: Times given do not include marinating time of at least 4 hours.

Greek-Inspired Seared Pork Chops image

Bursting with flavor and perfect for a light summer dinner, these Greek-inspired pork chops are anything but boring. The pork is well seasoned and the flavor is amplified through the caramelization that occurs during searing. The bright acidity is balanced out with salty, brininess from the olives and feta.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 (5 ounce) boneless, center-cut pork chops
1 tablespoon Greek seasoning
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup sliced Kalamata olives
1 medium lemon, juiced
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Place pork chops between sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper and pound to flatten to 1/2-inch thickness. Season both sides of the chops evenly with Greek seasoning.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Place 2 chops in the hot skillet and sear for 2 minutes. Flip and cook until chops are no longer pink in the center, or to desired degree of doneness, 2 to 4 more minutes. Set aside and keep warm. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and repeat to cook remaining 2 chops.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Add tomatoes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes are slightly blistered and softened, about 3 minutes. Add olives and lemon juice and cook for 2 minutes.
