Marinated Pork Chops with Herb Salsa Recipe

  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped rosemary
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 6 (5-ounce) boneless pork rib chops
  • 1 tablespoon drained capers
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1/2 (.6 ounce) package basil leaves
  • 1/2 mint leaves
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt
  1. In a large bowl, whisk 1/4 cup of the olive oil with the lemon juice, rosemary and two-thirds of the garlic; season with pepper. Add the pork chops and turn to coat. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
  2. Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse the remaining garlic with the capers, mustard and vinegar just to combine. Add the parsley, basil and mint and pulse to chop. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and pulse just to combine. Transfer the salsa to a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
  3. Light a grill. Remove the pork from the marinade and season with salt. Grill over high heat, turning once, until just cooked through, 8 to 9 minutes. Let the chops rest for 5 minutes, then serve with the salsa.
