Pork Chops with Scallion-Lemon Relish

Ingredients:

• 8 scallions finely chopped
• 2 tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tsp. grated lemon zest
• 1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
• 4 (6-oz.) pork loin chops, trimmed
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Makes 4 Servings (1 pork chop & 2 tablespoons relish)

1. Spray the rack of a broiler pan with olive oil or nonstick spray and preheat the broiler.
2. Meanwhile, to make the relish, combine the scallions, soy sauce, and lemon zest and juice in a small bowl; set aside.
3. Sprinkle the pork chops with salt and pepper. Place on the broiler rack and  broil 4 inches from the heat until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the side of a shop registers 160 F for medium, about 6 minutes on each side. Serve with the relish.

Note: This recipe appears in the WW in 20 Minutes Cookbook. This is a quick and easy dinner that's delicious and brighten your taste buds. Lemon and soy sauce make a surprising combination with pork. I never thought lemon would go well with soy sauce and scallions but it does. I do recommend adding garlic to your pork because garlic always makes everything better.
