Grilled Balsamic Glazed Pork Chops
Share
This is one of those recipes that makes grilling feel easy.
Thick, juicy pork chops marinated in Basil Premium Olive Oil, Neapolitan Herb Dark Balsamic, a little honey, and fresh garlic — it’s such a fresh, savory combination.
The basil olive oil gives it that bright, herbal base. The Neapolitan Herb Balsamic adds depth and just the right amount of sweetness. When it hits the grill, the glaze caramelizes slightly and creates the most beautiful flavor on the outside while the inside stays tender and juicy.
Let them rest for a few minutes before serving, and you’ll have pork chops that are flavorful without being complicated.
Serve them with grilled vegetables, a simple salad, or even roasted potatoes.
Friendly. Flavorful. Always a crowd-pleaser.

Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Remove pork chops from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard used marinade.
