How to make pork chops with fennel

1. Crush the garlic clove with the fennel seeds, add the olive oil and lemon zest.

2. Smear over the pork chops and cook under a hot preheated grill for 4-5 minutes each side, until cooked through.

To barbecue, preheat your barbecue in the usual way until it reaches the correct temperature. Cook turning once, bearing in mind you may have to adjust the cooking time slightly depending on how hot your barbecue is or how near the heat source the food is placed.

3. Serve with a spinach and thinly sliced fennel salad, dressed with lemon juice and olive oil, and lemon wedges to squeeze over.
