Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
2 wide strips lemon zest (removed with a vegetable peeler), plus the juice of 1 lemon
2 large nectarines, chopped (about 2 cups)
1 large fennel bulb, cored and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 red onion, sliced 1/2 inch thick and separated into rings
1 red onion, sliced 1/2 inch thick and separated into rings
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for the grill
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
4 boneless center-cut pork loin chops (3/4 to 1 inch thick; about 1 1/2 pounds), trimmed

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Bring the vinegar, sugar, mustard and lemon zest to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Cook, whisking occasionally, until syrupy, about 3 minutes. Add the nectarines and cook until just softened, 3 to 5 minutes; keep warm over low heat.
  • Meanwhile, toss the fennel and red onion with the olive oil in a large bowl; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Brush the grill grates with olive oil. Grill the vegetables (with the fennel perpendicular to the grates to keep them from falling into the grill, or use a grill basket), flipping, until marked and crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the lemon juice and parsley; toss to combine.
  • Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Brush the grill grates with more olive oil. Grill the pork until marked and just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Serve with the nectarines (discard the lemon zest) and the fennel-onion mixture.

BRINED, STUFFED AND GRILLED PORK CHOPS



Brined, Stuffed and Grilled Pork Chops image

I have recently started brining for all types of meats. It really does keep the meat juicy and tender, no more dried out meats for me. This may seem like a lot of ingredients, but it comes together quickly and easily and is well worth the effort! I have also used sourdough bread in place of the cornbread with equally good results. If you do not have access to the grill, these can be browned, then finished in the oven to an internal temp of 145 degrees. This is adapted from The Neelys on The Food Network. Prep time does not include brining time.
