Instructions
- In a medium bowl whisk the olive oil and balsamic vinegar together with the onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and water. Stir in the pistachios, chives, parsley, mint and cilantro.
- Light a grill and oil the grate. In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper.
- Grill the pork chops over moderately high heat, basting frequently with the basting salmuera, until browned. The steaks are done when a thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers at 140℉, 6 to 7 minutes per side, could be more depending on thickness of steaks.
- Transfer the chops to a plate and top with some of the serving salmuera. Sprinkle with smoked salt if preferred and serve with the remaining pistachio salmuera.
Notes
- The pistachio salmuera would work very well with other proteins if you don't eat pork. Try it on steak, tuna, chicken, or even as a dip.
- You can blend the pistachio salmuera if you'd prefer a more smooth consistency.
