  8. 2 lemons, halved

  10. 1 bunch green onions
Instructions
  1. Season pork chops with salt, black pepper and Aleppo pepper, and place in a stoneware dish.

  3. Turn to coat, cover and refrigerate 2 – 3 hours.
  4. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Brush any large pieces of rosemary or garlic off of the pork chops and grill until nicely seared on each side, about 4 minutes per side.

  11. Grilled red onion slices until tender, turning once, about 5 – 7 minutes per side.
