Grilled Pork Chops with Peach Agrodolce
Ingredients
For the agrodolce:
- 2 tablespoons raisins
- 2 tablespoons sweet Riesling white wine
- 2 tablespoons water
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon white balsamicย vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 large ripe peaches peeled and diced into 1-inch pieces
For the pork chops:
- 4 center cut, boneless pork chops (1-inch thick)
Instructions
To prepare the agrodolce:
- Cook the raisins, wine and 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Add the vinegar, oil and parsley. Stir in the peaches and add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside while grilling the pork chops.
For the pork chops:
- Season the chops with salt and pepper. Grill until well charred with an internal temperature of 145ยฐF. Allow the chops to rest for 10 minutes before serving.ย
- Serve the pork chops topped with the peach agrodolce. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
- Allow the pork chops to come to room temperature for about 30-minutes before grilling. This helps them cook all the way through instead of being raw in the middle and overcooked on the outside.
- Balsamic vinegar is delicious in this sauce but champagne vinegar or another light colored vinegar would be a good too.

This dish just got a shout out from Tanna at Brick Street Bungalow. I'm definitely going to be trying this.
From the Kitchen
I came over to visit from Tanna's bungalow. We love peaches and chicken and delightful combinations of both. I've bookmarked this recipe to try. As an added bonus, I see that you are a Virginia blogger. I was born and raised in Virginia–in fact, in the city that Amanda and her sweet family now call home. I had the delight of meeting them (and Tanna) on my visit back home last

Mmmmmm… I love all these peach recipes. I just saw peaches here in NY a few days ago and I'm looking forward to getting some. Ice cream is high on my list of things to do with peaches this year. Yours looks so creamy and delicious! Summer in a bowl.

These are some awesome peachy recipes, especially this grilled pork with peach agrodolce! Can't wait to try it as I just got some peaches from my in-law's garden. ๐ Have a great weekend.

Looks really delicious. I like the addition of the balsamic to balance out the sweetness of the peaches and raisins. Your other peach recipes look great too. Don't ya just love the fruits of summer?
Jacquelyn Grandy
I love peaches, nectarines and all those juicy summer fruits. I love that you topped them on pork chops as pork chops have a tendency to be dry. <br /><br />I am definitely checking out your peach pie post as that is my FAVORITE pie. <br /><br />xoxo,<br />Jackie
