Pork Chops With Chilean Grapes and Rosemary

Ingredients:

• 2 bone-in pork chops
• Kosher salt and ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 7 ounces whole fresh grapes
• 3-5 sprigs fresh rosemary or thyme

Directions:

1. Season chops with 1 teaspoon salt and ample freshly ground black pepper. Set seasoned chops aside and allow them to come to room temp.
2. In a medium bowl, toss grapes with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until oil is almost smoking. Place chops in the hot pan. Brown the first side (this should take about 3-4 minutes), then flip the chops and add grapes and rosemary to the pan around the chops. Brown the other side of the chops for another 3 minutes. Check for doneness – meat thermometer should read 145 degrees at the thickest spot when the chops are done.
4. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of the chops. 
5. Serve immediately.
