Marinaded pork chops are grilled to perfection!

Ingredients

• 4 boneless pork loin chops about 3/4 to 1 inch thick
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped or 1 tablespoon dried cilantro
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed (about 3 tablespoons)
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• Juice of 1 whole lime

Preparation

Step 1

Whisk together the soy sauce, cilantro, garlic, brown sugar, vegetable oil and lime juice in a bowl.

In a large baking dish, arrange the pork chops in an even layer. Pour the marinade over the pork chops, reserving about 1/4 cup of the marinade over the pork chops, reserving about 1/4 cup of the marinade in the refrigerator for later use.

Marinate the pork chops for 20-30 minutes.

Heat an indoor grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Remove pork chops from the marinade, discarding the excess marinade. Place pork chops on the hot grill for 4 minutes on each side flipping once, until the internal temperature of the pork measures between 145 F (medium rare) and 160 F (medium) on a meat thermometer.

Transfer th grilled pork chops to a cutting board and let rest for 3 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Pour the reserved marinade over the sliced pork before serving.
