  4. Carefully make a slit into the side of each pork chop using a chef's knife to create a pocket to stuff ingredients into.

  6. Brush oil on the grill grate to prevent sticking. Grill the pork chops until nicely browned, 6 to 8 minutes, turning every few minutes to create grill marks.
  7. Transfer to a baking sheet and finish cooking in the oven until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes.
