Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, paprika, salt, pepper, and lemon juice to create a marinade.
Step 2
Place the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the chops. Ensure each chop is well coated.
Step 3
Seal the bag or cover the dish, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 4 hours for more flavor.
Step 4
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 400-450°F (200-230°C).
Step 5
Remove the pork chops from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Step 6
Place the pork chops on the preheated grill. Close the lid and grill for about 6-7 minutes on one side.
Step 7
Flip the pork chops and continue to grill for another 6-7 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) as measured with a meat thermometer.
Step 8
Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier chop.
Step 9
Serve the grilled pork chops hot, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
