Honey Marinated Pork Chops

Honey Marinated Pork Chops

I’m always looking for great ways to make pork chops.  These Honey Marinated Pork Chops are easy to make and really yummy. You will just need to plan ahead a bit and marinate in the fridge for 12 to 24 hours. Serve with roasted Brussels sprouts and a side salad.

INGREDIENTS

8 Bone-In Rib Pork Chops (1 Inch Thick)

1 Cup Soy Sauce

4 Cups Orange Juice

3 Minced Garlic Cloves

1/2 Cup Dijon Mustard

1 Cup Honey

1 Teaspoon Ground Cayenne Pepper

1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt

1 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper

In a medium-size bowl combine soy sauce, orange juice, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, honey and cayenne pepper. Mix well with a wire whisk. Place pork chops into a large container or bowl. Pour marinade over pork chops and cover. Place in fridge for 12 to 24 hours. When ready to cook remove pork chops from marinade. Throw away marinade. Place pork chops onto a plate and season with kosher salt and pepper.  Place into a grill pan over a medium-high heat. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, turning only once. It’s a good idea to have a meat thermometer on hand. The internal temperature should read 145 degrees. Remove from pan and place onto and let rest for 3 to 4 minutes before serving. Serve warm. Serves 4 to 8 depending on how hungry your crew is.
