Try sweet and savoury with a tropical twist! This recipe includes the perfect summer glaze to liven up lean protein like pork chops, chicken breasts, or even extra-firm tofu. Add one of our sodium-free Toppers for even more savoury flavours.

Ingredients

  • 1 can (14 oz/398 ml) pineapple slices in juice
  • 1 lb (450 g) boneless pork loin chops, 4 chops
  • 2 tbsp Teriyaki Dry Glaze or Sweet Garlic Chicken Seasoning, divided
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

Preparation

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly brush with oil.
  2. Drain pineapple juice, reserving 2 tbsp. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, toss pork chops with 1 tbsp dry glaze and oil. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk reserved pineapple juice, remaining 1 tbsp dry glaze, honey, and soy sauce.
  4. Place chops on grill and baste with glaze. Cook, with lid open, 6–8 min, or until chops reach desired doneness, flipping and basting every 2 min.
  5. While chops are cooking, grill pineapple slices 1–2 min each side.
