Ingredients
- 1 (18-oz.) jar peach preserves
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp. grated fresh ginger
- 2 tsp. olive oil
- 4 (8-oz.) bone-in pork loin chops (1½ inches thick)
- ¼ tsp. table salt
- ¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 4 large peaches, halved
Directions
1. Light charcoal grill or preheat gas grill to 350° to 400° (medium-high). Bring preserves, soy sauce, and ginger to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat; reserve ½ cup to baste peaches.
2. Rub oil over pork chops; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill pork chops, covered with grill lid, 5 to 7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 145°, basting often with 1 cup peach preserves mixture.
3. At the same time, grill peaches, covered with grill lid, 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until tender, basting often with reserved ½ cup peach preserves mixture. Let pork chops stand 5 minutes before serving with peaches.
*Peach preserves are preferable for this recipe, but if you only have apricot or orange preserves on hand, they also impart a sweet and tangy flavor.
