In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 8 hours for more intense flavor).
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F) and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork chops from the marinade and shake off any excess. Reserve the remaining marinade for basting during grilling.
Place the chops on the preheated grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (use a meat thermometer for accuracy). Baste the chops with the reserved marinade occasionally as they cook.
Once done, remove the chops from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the grilled honey mustard chops hot, garnished with chopped parsley. Pair with your favorite sides such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
