September 14, 2012 - Tangy Pork Chops

This one does take a little preparation ahead of time. You need to marinate the meat for 4 hours or so before cooking it. So, I just made up the marinade in the morning before going to work, and it was ready to go home at night. We REALLY liked this one! While it was cooking, we both commented how good it smelled.  We would definitely make this one again. We had grapes, half an apple and a stir-fry mix of vegetables for sides. 

Ps. We just cooked our in a skillet for about 15 minutes on medium heat, turning them over often. We don't have a grill so... yeah. We improvised with what we have. 

INGREDIENTS:
4 boneless pork chops
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic (optional)

DIRECTIONS:
1. Combine the pork chops, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, vegetable oil, and garlic
in a large resealable plastic bag. Squeeze as much excess air from bag as possible.
Marinate in refrigerator 4 to 24 hours.
2. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
3. Remove the pork chops from the marinade directly to the grill. Discard the marinade.
4. Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instantread
thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
