Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 2 pieces ripe peaches
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F). If using a stovetop grill pan, heat it over medium heat.
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel, then rub them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly onto both sides of the chops. Let them sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes.
Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits. Brush the cut sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking on the grill.
In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, lemon juice, and fresh thyme leaves. Set this glaze mixture aside.
Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F. Avoid overcooking to keep them juicy.
While the pork is grilling, place the peaches cut side down on the grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until grill marks appear and the fruit is lightly caramelized.
Once the pork chops are cooked, brush them lightly with the balsamic glaze and cook for an additional 1 minute on each side to allow the glaze to set.
Remove the pork chops and peaches from the grill. Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes to retain their juices.
Serve the grilled pork chops alongside the caramelized peaches. Drizzle any remaining balsamic glaze over the top for added flavor.
