Ingredients

• 4 pieces Pork chops, bone-in or boneless
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 pieces Red bell peppers, large
• 3 ounces Feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh mint, chopped
• 0.25 cup Optional: Kalamata olives, sliced

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the pork chops in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork chops, ensuring they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and let the pork marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.

Step 3

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Place the red bell peppers on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Roast the peppers for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are charred and blistered.

Step 4

Remove the peppers from the oven and transfer them to a bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a plate to let the peppers steam for 10 minutes. Once cooled, peel off the skins, remove the seeds, and cut the peppers into thin strips.

Step 5

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the pork chops from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off, and grill for about 4-5 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Let the chops rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.

Step 6

To assemble, place the grilled pork chops on a serving platter or individual plates. Top each chop with roasted bell pepper strips, a generous sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese, and a garnish of chopped parsley and mint. Optionally, add slices of Kalamata olives for an extra burst of flavor.

Step 7

Serve immediately with your preferred side dishes, such as a Greek salad, roasted potatoes, or couscous.
