|
In non-reactive bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate overnight (6-24 hours). Remove chops from marinade; set aside and reserve remaining marinade.
Grill- Over a medium flame, grill evenly on both sides until the meat thermometer registers an internal temperature of least 145°F. If you choose to butterfly the chops, making them serve more and cook more quickly, they should be cooked over high heat for only 2 or 3 min. per side and watched carefully to prevent overcooking. Baste with marinade prior to turning pork chops. Use tongs/spatula to turn meat—not a fork, which will pierce meat, allowing juices to escape
Stovetop- In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook pork in 1T. olive oil for 6-8 min. on each side, or until golden brown. Baste with marinade prior to turning pork chops.
(Chops continue to cook after removed from heating source- place them in a well-protected place. After five minutes, use meat thermometer to test temperature of pork chops at center. They should measure 160° F for medium,
170° F for well done.)
If desired, remaining marinade may be heated on stovetop in a skillet, and served as extra sauce.
