Ingredients

• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 cup lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
• 1/8 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/8 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk garlic, lemon juice, peel, oil, rosemary, basil and pepper. Pour 1/3 cup marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the pork. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight, turning occasionally. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.

Drain marinade; brush the remaining marinade on the chops while cooking. Grill chops over medium heat about 4-5 minutes per side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Let meat stand for 5 minutes before serving.
