Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 large garlic cloves
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice, divided
4 (3/4- to 1-inch-thick) bone-in rib pork chops (2 1/4 pound)
1 large peach or nectarine
1 teaspoon sugar
1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes (10 ounces), quartered
2 scallions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh jalapeño chile
1/4 cup chopped basil
2 tablespoons chopped mint
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon chili powder
Accompaniment: lime wedges

Steps:

  • Mince and mash garlic to a paste with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Transfer to a bowl and stir in oil and 3 tablespoons lime juice.
  • Pour marinade over chops in a glass or ceramic shallow baking dish, then turn to coat. Marinate at room temperature, turning over once, 20 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Chop peach, then toss with sugar and remaining teaspoon lime juice in a medium bowl and let stand 5 minutes.
  • Stir in tomatoes, scallions, chile, herbs, and vinegar. Let stand while grilling pork.
  • Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium heat for gas).
  • Meanwhile, remove chops from marinade and pat dry, leaving any bits of garlic. Sprinkle chops on both sides with chili powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper (total).
  • Oil grill rack, then grill chops, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once and moving to area with no coals underneath if flare-ups occur, until just cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Serve chops with relish.
