Chinese Peppered Pork Chops


These were amazing! Easy quick meal with lots of flavor! :)

Ingredients:
1/2 cup soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons medium-cracked ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 1/4 inch thick loin pork chops (we used 2 butterfly cut pork loins..there was extra marinade but just enough for two!)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil



Put soy sauce, garlic, sugar, pepper and salt in a ziploc bag and mix together before placing pork chops in the bag. Rub the marinade into the pork chops and then let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.


Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet and place pork chops on the skillet, shaking excess marinade off before putting it on the skillet (because we used only 2 pork chops we could cook them at the same time, but depending on your pan size you may have to repeat the cooking process until all pork chops are cooked)


Once they are cooked through take them off the skillet and serve! We made two sides: one side was corn and the other was mashed potatoes. Great compliments to the pork chop and marinade!


Enjoy! :)

  4. Okay - this was yummy but a little salty for me. I used low sodium soy sauce. Next time I will not add the other salt that the recipe calls for. A tasty meal though - especially after only 30 minutes in the marinade. MOM

  5. remember we talked about the difference between kosher salt and regular salt...i think that might help the sodium content!

  6. I used low sodium soy sauce...THE best marinade!! It was sooo good. I didn't have pork chops..so I used chicken breast. I had mine with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Really good Ali!!
