RENAISSANCE CHOPS
Serves 4
• 4 pork loin or rib chops, 3/4-to 1-inch thick • Cooking oil spray • 2 teaspoons dried sweet marjoram leaves • 1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning • 1/4 teaspoon fine grind sea salt (or kosher salt) • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Cooking Directions Lightly spray both sides of chops with oil. Mix together seasonings. Sprinkle evenly on both sides of chops. Grill over direct heat or broil 4 to 5 inches from heat for 8 to 10 minutes. Chops should be slightly pink in the center.
Serving Suggestions Simple version of a basic grilled chop. Marjoram's delicate flavor of oregano gives this dish a taste of the Mediterranean. Serve with a green salad and Countryside Couscous (in side dish category).
