Ingredients

Honey Balsamic Marinade

  • ¼ cup honey
  • ½ cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 cloves roasted garlic raw is fine too

Pork Chops

  • Salt & Pepper to taste about ¼ teaspoon each
  • 2 pounds center cut pork chops boneless

Strawberry Jalapeño Salsa

  • ½ cup chopped red onion
  • 1 jalapeño pepper seeds and ribs removed
  • 16 oz California strawberries washed
  • 1 handful cilantro

Instructions

To make the Honey Balsamic Marinade:

  • In the bottom of a 9x9 pan, add honey, balsamic and roasted garlic. Whisk to combine.

To grill the Pork Chops:

  • Season pork with salt & pepper on each side. Nestle into the marinade, covering all sides. Cover and marinade for 1 hour to 24 hours, turning chops 2-3 times.
  • To grill, remove from marinade. Let sit for 20 minutes to remove chill. Cook using a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat or on an outdoor grill. Chops should cook in about 4-6 minutes each side, depending on thickness. Let sit 10 minutes before cutting.

To make Strawberry Jalapeño Salsa:

  • While pork chops are cooking, make salsa. In a chopper, add red onion, jalapeño, cilantro and juice from one lime. Pulse to chop into medium chunks.
  • Remove stems from strawberries. Chop into small, bite sized pieces.
  • In a bowl, add strawberries and honey; stir. Add onion and pepper mixture. Season with a sprinkle of salt. Let sit for about 5 minutes.
