If made ahead, allow the butter to come to room temperature before spreading over the pork. You can also combine the oil and herbs a couple of hours in advance. Ingredients:
8 (7-ounce) bone-in center-cut pork chops |
1 teaspoon salt, divided |
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil |
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh chives |
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme |
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
2 tablespoons butter, softened |
2 1/2 teaspoons minced shallots |
1/4 teaspoon grated lemon rind |
Directions:
1. Prepare grill to medium-high heat.
2. Sprinkle both sides of pork evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Combine oil, chives, thyme, rosemary, and garlic, stirring well. Rub oil mixture evenly over both sides of pork. Place pork on grill rack; grill 6 minutes on each side or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of pork registers 155°. Remove pork from grill; let stand 5 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
3. Combine butter, shallots, and lemon rind, stirring well. Spread about 1 teaspoon butter mixture over each pork chop; let the pork stand an additional 5 minutes.
