Pork chops are a classic grilling staple, but they can often be dry and tough. This recipe for Tarragon and Grilled Pork Chop solves that problem by marinating the pork chops in a mixture of olive oil, tarragon, salt, and pepper. The marinade helps to tenderize the pork chops and infuses them with flavor. The pork chops are then grilled over medium-high heat until cooked through. This results in a juicy and tender pork chop with a slightly crispy exterior.
