For best results, choose firm but ripe nectarines that have a slight give when gently squeezed. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your preference for heat. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute with fresh parsley, though the flavor will be slightly different. Allowing the pork chops to rest after grilling helps retain their juices, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop. Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or rice for a complete meal.
