Grilled Pork Chops with Caramelized Peaches and Basil
7 ingredients
Serves 4.
openrecipes
This is the quintessential dish for warm nights when you feel like grilling outside. Sirloin chops are a little tougher than loin or rib chops, but they have an intense pork flavor. The chops are paired with two summer staples: sweet, ripe peaches and peppery fresh basil. Tossing the peaches with a touch of maple syrup before grilling helps caramelize them, and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar adds a welcome acidic bite.
