SWEET & SPICY GRILLED PINEAPPLE PORK CHOPS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Pat pork dry, season generously with salt and pepper. Pat dry 8 of the pineapple rings. As grill heats, make glaze. In small sauce pan or skillet, combine 1/2 cup pineapple juice with soy sauce and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook, stirring frequently, until thick and shiny, 3-5 minutes. Set aside. Oil grill grate. Set pork and pineapple rings on grill. Grill, covered, until nicely marked, about 5 minutes. Turn, baste cooked side of pork with glaze. When pork reaches desired doneness (safe temp is 145°), remove from grill. Baste other side with glaze. Serve immediately, topped with 2 grilled pineapple rings per chop. Serve with scallions and remaining glaze, if you like. Refrigerate any leftovers.
