Grilled Pork Chops With Peaches Recipes

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED PORK CHOPS WITH PEACHES

Steps:

• Remove the pork chops from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. Prepare a gas grill or grill pan for medium-high heat and oil the grill grates.
• Pat the pork chops dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Combine 1/4 cup oil, the zest and juice of 1 lime, 1 tablespoon thyme and 1 tablespoon honey in a large resealable plastic bag. Add the pork chops, press out any air, seal and massage to make sure the chops are well coated. Set aside.
• Pit and slice each peach into eight wedges. Combine the peaches and the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, toss to coat and set aside.
• Remove the pork from the marinade. Carefully wrap 1 slice of prosciutto around each pork chop. Spoon some of the marinade over the prosciutto, handling it delicately to keep the prosciutto intact. Place the pork on the grill, seam-side up, and lower the heat to medium. Cook, flipping the chops once, until the prosciutto is crisp and the pork reaches an internal temperature of 130 to 135 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side. Make sure to turn the pork so all sides crisp evenly.
• Transfer the chops to a clean, rimmed baking sheet to rest. It is important for the pork to rest at least 5 minutes and up to 10 minutes to make sure the juices evenly redistribute and the pork finishes cooking.
• While the pork rests, add the peaches to the grill, reserving the liquid in the bowl, and cook, flipping once, until grill marks form and the peaches have softened slightly, 2 to 4 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, combine the remaining zest and juice of 1 lime, remaining 1 teaspoon honey and 1 teaspoon pepperoncini pickling liquid to the bowl containing the peach juice. Whisk with a fork.
• Add the sliced pepperoncini and toss to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Add the grilled peaches and toss to coat.
• Put the pork chops on a serving tray and top with the grilled peach mixture. Drizzle the sauce over the pork and peaches and garnish with the remaining thyme. Serve immediately.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH GLAZED PEACHES

Steps:

• Build a fire in your grill, leaving about 1/3 of grill free of coals.
• Mix butter and molasses together well. Add lime and set aside. Rub cut side of peaches with oil.
• Sprinkle chops and peaches generously with salt and pepper. When coals are covered with gray ash and fire is hot (you can hold your hand 5 inches above coals for only 1 to 2 seconds), put chops on grill directly over coals. Put peaches on grill along edge of coals.
• After 4 minutes, flip chops and cook for 4 minutes more, then move chops to part of grill with no coals. Cover them with a disposable foil pan, and continue to cook for 8 to 10 minutes more for medium.
• When you move chops, flip peaches over. During last 2 minutes of cooking, coat peaches liberally with molasses-butter mixture. Remove from grill and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk vinegar, 4 tbsp oil, shallot, 1/4 tsp salt and a pinch of pepper in a small bowl.
• Rub pork chops with 1 tbsp oil, salt and pepper. Brush peaches with oil, salt and pepper. Season radicchio with oil, salt and pepper.
• Heat grill pan to medium high and cook chops three minutes on each side. Lower heat to medium low and cook four to six minutes more until done. Remove.
• Caramelize peaches three to four minutes on each side. Remove.
• Cook radicchio, turning every minute or so until edges brown slightly, but lettuce remains firm.
• Arrange chops, peaches and radicchio on serving platter (or individual dishes) and pour vinaigrette over all. Serve immediately.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS WITH PEACHES (WW)

Steps:

• Spray the grill racks with Pam and preheat grill to medium high.
• Prepare herb rub by mixing together first 6 ingredients (orange zest - pepper) in a small cup or bowl until mixture forms a paste. Rub pork chops with mixture.
• Place chops on grill and grill until pork chops are done (160-degrees F if using a meat thermometer) about 5-10 minutes per side depending on the thickness of your chops and desired doneness. Transfer to a platter and keep warm.
• Meanwhile spray the cut sides of the peaches (or nectarines - see note in description) with Pam. Place cut side down on grill, turning until tender and marked with grill lines (4-5 minutes per side -- I put my peach halves on the grill while the pork chops were cooking (after I turned the chops over) so everything was done at the same time.).
