Grilled Pork Loin Chops with Lemon Vinaigrette
I know is cold up there in the Northern Hemisphere and here is totally a different scenario as summer nearly approaches hence we are grilling some meat today for our dinner. Our choice of meat is this pork loin chops I bought a day before, it was unplanned but because the cut I saw in this supermarket we usually go was really good, I rarely see marbling on cuts like this so I grabbed several trays.
After going home I was thinking what’s the best way to cook this, I thought of frying but that does not do any justice to a nicely marbled meat like this so grilling will be the best option and with all that cut definitely some citrus must be included to cut that greasy taste. The end result was this succulent grilled pork with hints of garlic and refreshing lemony savoury sweet taste.
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- ¼ cup orange juice
- 1 tbsp honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- red pepper flakes
- 2 tbsp chopped coriander
- salt
- 6 pcs thick cut pork loin chops
- garlic salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- In a bowl combine the lemon juice, orange juice, honey, garlic, salt and red pepper flakes.
- Slowly add extra virgin olive oil while whisking until it emulsifies. Once it’s thick stir in the coriander then set it aside.
- Season pork loin chops with garlic salt and freshly ground black pepper, cook in a grill for 4-6 minutes on each side or until cooked.
- Place pork in serving platters then pour some vinaigrette over the chops. Serve.
They sure look so very inviting!!!

Wow those cops look awe-mazing! Just gorgeous, juicy, succulent and love the vinaigrette!
Pork chops usually don’t look tender and juicy but yours sure do. What a great recipe! I might actually buy some pork chops again. Love the lemon element!
