Preparation
Step 1
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Step 3
Rub the marinade evenly all over the sides of the pork chops and place them in a bowl covered with plastic wrap. Allow them to marinate for at least an hour in the refrigerator.
Step 4
Grill the pork chops on high for about 5 minutes on each side (the cooking time will depend on the thickness of the pork chops). They are fully cooked when the internal temperature reaches 145°F on an instant-read thermometer.
Step 5
Allow the pork chops to rest for 10 minutes before serving them, bringing them to 145°F.

Chef's notes
Bring pork chops to room temperature before grilling to promote even cooking.
Check internal temperature to avoid overcooking. Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure they have reached 145°F.
Rest before slicing to help retain juices.
