Ingredients

  • 4 whole pork chops
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1 tbsp thyme leaves, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper.

  2. 2

    Pat the 4 pork chops dry with paper towels. Rub the herb-oil mixture all over both sides of each chop.

  3. 3

    Let the chops sit at room temperature for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  4. 4

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).

  5. 5

    Place the chops on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until nicely charred and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.

  6. 6

    Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. The meat should feel firm but springy when pressed.

  7. 7

    Serve hot, garnished with extra fresh herbs if desired.
