Natural grilled pork cutlets with plums

topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 4 natural bone-in pork chops (about 1.3 kg total)
  • 1 tbsp + 2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil + extra for greasing the grill grate
  • 2 plums, halved and pitted
  • 4 cups fine arugula
  • 1/3 cup fresh parsley
  • Juice of half a lemon

Preparation:

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Generously season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Lightly brush the grill grate with olive oil. Grill the pork chops until grill marks appear, about 6 minutes. Flip and continue grilling until the meat is still slightly pink near the bone, another 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let the meat rest for about 5 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, toss the plums with 2 teaspoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning once, until grill marks appear, about 2 minutes per side. Cut the plums into wedges.
  3. Toss the arugula and parsley with lemon juice and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide among four plates and top with plum wedges. Serve with the pork chops.
