A delightful twist on classic pork chops, infused with Mediterranean flavors of honey, lemon, and herbs.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, juice and zest of the lemon, chopped fresh mint, dried oregano, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Ensure the honey is well mixed with the other ingredients for a balanced flavor.
Place the pork chops in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chops.
Marinate the chops for at least 4 hours for maximum flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Remove the pork chops from the marinade and let any excess drip off.
Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the pork chops for 5-6 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chops are cooked perfectly.
Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh mint if desired.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat tender.
