Ingredients
  • two 1-inch-thick, bone-in pork chops (about 1 ΒΌ pounds total)
  • 1 cup finely diced pineapple
  • 1/2 cup finely diced grape or cherry tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoon minced red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup chopped mint
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 2 thai bird's-eye chiles, stemmed and chopped finely
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions
  1. Preheat the broiler. Let the pork chops come to room temperature. Meanwhile, combine the pineapple, tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, mint, lime juice, and chiles in a bowl and set aside. Coat the pork chops with the olive oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  2. Place under the broiler and cook until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part without touching the bone reads at least 145 degrees, about 6 minutes. Transfer to plates, season the salsa with salt, to taste, mix well, and top the chops with the salsa. Let the chops rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
