Preparation
- In a small bowl, soak the onion in cold water for at least 10 minutes. Drain.
- Meanwhile, prepare a medium-high (400°F to 475°F) gas or charcoal grill fire. (Or position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the broiler on high.) In a small bowl, combine the sugar, paprika, and 2 tsp. salt. Sprinkle over both sides of the chops.
- Divide the watermelon between two dinner plates and sprinkle lightly with salt. Top with the onion, olives, feta, mint, and a little oil.
- Drizzle a little oil over the chops, and then grill or broil them, flipping once, until done to your liking, 4 to 6 minutes total for medium rare (130°F).
- In a medium bowl, toss the arugula with the 1 Tbs. oil and lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pile it on the watermelon salad. Serve the chops with the salad.
