Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Mediterranean Pork Chops.
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, blend together dried sage, rosemary, salt, thyme, crushed fennel seed, white sugar, and crumbled bay leaf until the mixture is uniform.
Step 2
Generously rub this aromatic herb blend over both sides of the pork chops, ensuring they are thoroughly coated.
Step 3
Drizzle olive oil over the chops and massage it in for added flavor.
Step 4
Cover the seasoned chops and let them rest in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight, allowing the herbs to infuse their essence into the meat.
Step 5
When you're ready to grill, preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grate to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for approximately 4 minutes on each side, watching for a beautiful golden-brown crust and those coveted grill marks.
Step 7
To ensure perfect doneness, check that the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C) using an instant-read meat thermometer.
Step 8
Enjoy the tantalizing aroma and savor the delicious flavors that have melded together during marination.
