Steps:
- For the pork chops: Season the pork chops with salt and pepper; set aside while making the glaze.
- Add the apricot preserves, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, orange zest and juice and habanero to a small pot and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the sauce is reduced and thickened, 10 to 15 minutes; let cool. Divide the glaze between 2 bowls, reserving 1 bowl for basting and one for serving with the cooked chops.
- Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Coat the grates with plenty of vegetable oil to help create a nonstick surface.
- Using a brush, coat the chops with the first round of glaze. Place them on the grill glazed-side down and grill without moving until the glaze begins to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Brush the tops with glaze, flip the chops, brush the other side with more glaze and continue cooking until the chops are caramelized, charred and sticky and the internal temperature registers 135 degrees F, another 7 to 10 minutes. Discard the basting glaze. Let the chops rest for 5 to 10 minutes, coating them once with the reserved serving glaze while resting.
- For the relish: Combine the mint, apple, bell pepper, scallion and lime zest and juice in a bowl and toss to coat.
- Top the pork chops with some green apple relish and serve with the remaining serving glaze and relish.

PORK CHOPS WITH JAMMY-MUSTARD GLAZE
Fruit and mustard are two classic accompaniments to pork, and really, a juicy chop doesn't need much more than that for a sweet and tangy sauce. Mix together water, grainy mustard and any fruit preserve that's good with pork like cherry, fig, peach or apricot. Sear bone-in pork chops mostly on one side to prevent overcooking, then pour the fruit-mustard mixture into the skillet while they rest. The pork will stay moist, and its juices will have time to mingle with the sauce. Then just slice the pork and drape it in the velvety two-ingredient glaze. Eat with mashed or roasted potatoes and a green salad.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup water, the preserves and the mustard. Set near the stove. Pat the pork chops dry, and season all over with salt and pepper.
- In a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. Add the pork chops and cook, occasionally pressing down to make good contact with the skillet, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, flip the chops and cook until opaque on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the jam-mustard mixture, turn off the heat, and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Transfer the chops to plates, then return the skillet to medium-low heat and simmer, scraping up browned bits, until the sauce has thickened slightly, 1 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. Every jam is different, so if it's too sweet, add more mustard, salt or black pepper; if it's too salty, add a little more jam; if it's too intense or thick, add a little more water; if it's flat, add salt. Spoon sauce over the pork chops.

Tips:
- Choose thick pork chops (at least 1 inch thick) for grilling. This will help them stay juicy and prevent them from drying out.
- Brine the pork chops in a mixture of water, salt, and sugar for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This will help tenderize the meat and keep it moist.
- Use a flavorful marinade or rub to add extra flavor to the pork chops. Some good options include a mixture of olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and thyme, or a mixture of Dijon mustard, honey, and paprika.
- Grill the pork chops over medium heat for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and juicy.
Conclusion:
Grilled pork chops are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. They are easy to make and can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you choose to brine, marinate, or rub the pork chops, be sure to cook them over medium heat until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. With a little planning and effort, you can create a delicious and memorable meal that your family and friends will love.
