2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

Preheat grill to high heat. Coat pork chops with olive oil all over.
2 pork chops, 2 teaspoons olive oil
Season pork chops on each side with salt, pepper, and paprika.
1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika
Place pork chops on the grill. Sear for 5 minutes on each side, then reduce the heat to medium-high. Move the pork chops to indirect heat on the upper rack (or, if you do not have one, transfer the heat to only one side of the grill and place the pork chops on the opposite side). Close the lid.
Cook until the internal temperature reads 145℉ on a meat thermometer, about 15-20 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice and serve!

Notes

You can cook pork chops of any size following this recipe - rather than following an exact time, aim for an internal temperature of 145℉ for any size pork chop.
High heat on a gas grill means the knobs should be turned as high as the grill can go. For a charcoal grill, aim for 500℉ minimum.
