Lovely a month ago
Turned out great! Cooked it for 30 more mins than said and turned out juicy and tasty. Super easy to make. Loved it! Really good flavor!

I wasn’t overly impressed with this recipe although it was good. Not one that I will go out of my way to make again.

Simple and tasty. Add more garlic for extra zest. served with BBQ corn on the cob. A starch would be a good addition. Baby reds perhaps.

These were pretty good. I would try to marinate them longer next time to see if that puts more flavor into them. I was able to marinate for about 20 minutes. Cooking to the right temperature is essential for chops.

Had to use much thinner pork chops due to a shopping mix-up and they ended up a tad dry and chewy, but still edible. I’ll give this another go with the proper sized chops.

The dish was kinda lacking in seasoning for me so I will definitely tweak the recipe next time. Overall, the dish was mediocre.

Used this recipe today and loved it! I didn't use nearly the amount of basil the recipe called for (I used about 1/3 cup), and I substituted limes for lemon juice, as I had them fresh on hand. The end result was moist, tender and tasty pork chops.

It was okay - too much basil - needs some other seasoning. Will not make again

Absolutely amazing! I only grilled 2 chops for my husband and I. Next time I’m gonna make 4. 2 wasn’t enough.

We marinated them for 1 hour and they were delicious! Light & fresh, it's a wonderful summer dish!

This was phenomenal! I let it marinade for 30 min as others suggested and it was so flavorful. My entire family ate them without a single complaint, even from the picky kids!
