Ingredients

• 1 tbsp. aniseed or fennel seeds
• 4 bone-in pork chops, patted dry
• Kosher salt, black pepper
• 1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
• 3 tbsp. olive oil, divided, plus more for grill
• 1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
• 1 tsp. finely chopped anchovy fillet
• 3 radishes, trimmed, thinly sliced on a mandolin
• 1/4 cup parsley leaves with tender stems
• 2 bunches scallions, roots trimmed

Directions

1. Toast aniseed in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing often, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool; coarsely grind in spice mill. Season pork chops all over with salt and pepper; sprinkle with aniseed and red pepper flakes. Let sit at room temp 30 minutes.

2. Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; brush grate with oil. Grill chops, moving around on grate to avoid flare-ups, until deep golden brown on both sides and cooked through, 8-10 minutes. Transfer chops to a plate and let rest 10 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, whisk lemon juice, anchovy, and 2 tbsp. oil in a medium bowl to combine. Add radishes and parsley and toss to coat.

4. Toss scallions on a rimmed baking sheet with remaining 1 tbsp. oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill scallions directly on grate, turning once, until lightly charred, about 2 minutes. Transfer scallions to a platter, set pork chops on top, and scatter radish salad over.
