Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

20 pork chops, 1/2 inch thick
Salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 bunch fresh thyme
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil, plus oil for grill
1/3 cup thinly sliced shallots
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons soy sauce
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 cup dry white wine

Steps:

Season chops on both sides with salt, pepper and allspice. Place thyme sprigs on each. Reserve 1 tablespoon thyme leaves. Put chops in a large bowl or container, making layers, cover and refrigerate overnight.
Remove chops from refrigerator. Heat grill and brush grates with oil. While grill is heating, heat tablespoon of oil in a skillet, add shallots and sauté until tender and starting to brown. Stir in mustard, soy sauce, lemon juice and wine. Bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in thyme leaves. Set aside.
Grill chops - with thyme sprigs still stuck to them - just a few minutes a side until lightly browned, in more than one shift if needed, depending on size of your grill. Pile them on a platter. Warm sauce and serve alongside.
