Description
Easy marinated pork chops — a family favorite and the perfect combination of sweet and savory. Made with only six simple ingredients!
Ingredients
Scale
4 pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced
1/4 cup coconut aminos or soy sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup maple syrup (or brown sugar)
Instructions
- Combine everything but the pork chops in a large freezer-size zip-top bag. Squish everything around to create the marinade.
- Place pork chops in the bag and toss to coat. Lay flat in the fridge for four hours (or more — overnight is great!), flipping the pork chops halfway through marinating time. (If you aren’t home and able to flip the pork chops, don’t worry about missing this step!)
- Remove pork chops from marinade and discard the marinade.
- Heat a large skillet to medium-high heat. Place pork chops in skillet and cook for approximately 5-6 minutes on each side, or until center is no longer pink and the pork chops are lightly browned.
- Remove from heat and let rest for a couple of minutes before plating and serving. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Jarred minced garlic and/or ginger paste will work well in this recipe if you don’t have fresh garlic or ginger on hand or are simply looking for a way to make this recipe even easier.
- Chicken breasts or a full pork tenderloin will also work well in this marinade if that’s more your style!
