Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless pork chops
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary (optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, black pepper, and salt until well combined. If using, stir in fresh rosemary for added flavor.
Place the pork chops in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork chops from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Place the pork chops on the preheated grill. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C), flipping once halfway through for even cooking.
Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the grilled pork chops immediately with your choice of healthy side dishes, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
