IOWA PORK CHOP Recipe

Prepare the Salsa

In a medium bowl, combine the diced pineapple, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside to let the flavors meld.

Season the Pork Chops

Rub the pork chops with olive oil and then generously apply the pork spice rub on both sides. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Grill the Pork Chops

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the pork chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Cook the Seasonal Vegetables

While the pork chops are grilling, toss the seasonal vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill them in a grill basket or on skewers for about 5-7 minutes or until tender.

Serve

Once the pork chops are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes. Serve with the sweet and sour pineapple salsa on top and the grilled seasonal vegetables on the side.
