Pineapple Teriyaki Pork Chops (The Biggest Loser)

I found this recipe in "The Biggest Loser Family Cookbook". It was so quick (I must be slow, but didn't realize that you could broil a pork chop in the oven...in just a few minutes!!), easy and super yummy!

Olive oil (they recommend in a sprayer, not store-bought spray)
4 (4 oz.) trimmed boneless pork loin chops, about 3/4" thick (mine came thicker, but I cut them in half width-wise)
1 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper
8 tsp. honey teriyaki marinade and sauce (I used Lawry's Teriyaki Sauce with pineapple juice)
4 slices canned pineapple slices in juice, drained

Preheat the broiler. Line a small baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly spray the foil with olive oil.
Lightly mist both sides of the chops with olive oil and season with the garlic powder, salt and pepper. Place the chops, not touching, on the baking sheet and broil (I set it to "High") about 3" from the heat for above 2 minutes (they recommend leaving the oven door open a crack when broiling). Turn the chops and brush or spread 2 tsp of the teriyaki marinade evenly over the top of each. Top with pineapple slices. Broil for 3-5 minutes longer, or until the pineapple and glaze brown lightly and the pork is barely pink inside.
