- Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
- Grill the pork chops to medium, about 7 minutes a side depending on thickness.
- To serve, spoon the onion marmellata over the pork chops. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

This is a really simple and delicious recipe that we LOVED thank you. I used pork fillet medallions rather than chops, and a couple of red onions as well as white in the marmellata. I had trouble getting my gas flame low enough, so had to watch the marmellata very carefully and add a tablespoon of water ever 15 minutes or so after the first 45 minutes. I made this for the two of us, but made the full recipe of marmellata as I think it will be good with meatloaf, on sandwiches or on a simple cheese and onion pizza.
