You’ve certainly seen Ronny Joseph Lvovski during one of his famous Whole30 Recipe Instagram takeovers. (His Whole30 Greek Burger is one of the most-liked recipes ever on that feed.) Every time he’s on the account, we get messages from legions of fans: “This man needs his own cookbook.”

Well, we agree. And we are thrilled to announce that The Primal Gourmet Cookbook is available for pre-order now and on sale everywhere on September 1. Of course, it’s Whole30 Endorsed.

The Primal Gourmet Cookbook includes over 120 recipes, and 100 are Whole30 or easily modified to be so. We’re particularly excited about the Mojo Loco Chicken Wings and the Grilled Shrimp Cobb, but honestly, every single recipe is fantastic. Narrowing it down is an impossible task—you’ll just have to nab a copy of the book and see for yourself. Today, we’re previewing Ronny’s Whole30 Pork Chops with Chimichurri Sauce.

Whole30 Pork Chops with Chimichurri Sauce

Prep Time 25

Marinating 4

Total Time 4 25

Ingredients

4 10-ounce center-cut bone-in pork chops
1 ½ inches thickKosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup Cha Cha Chimichurri

Instructions

GENEROUSLY season both sides of each pork chop with salt and pepper. Transfer the chops to a large zip-top plastic bag and add half the chimichurri. Massage the pork chops to coat with the chimichurri, then squeeze as much air out of the bag as possible and seal. Set on a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
HEAT a grill to medium-high or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the pork chops, without moving them, until grill marks form, about 4 minutes. Rotate the chops 90 degrees and cook until grill marks form, about 2 minutes. Flip the chops and repeat, until the chops reach your desired doneness (between 145° and 160°F).
LET the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving with the remaining chimichurri.
SERVE with your favorite Whole30 compatible veggie or a big green salad to make this a complete Whole30 meal.
