I am probably the opposite of most people, in that I gain weight in the summer, not the winter. I can avoid the heavy casseroles and baked goods, but give me a good barbecue with chips, salads, and meat slathered in sugar sauces and I’m a happy girl who can’t resist.
For me, pork can be somewhat boring unless it is fried or smothered in a sweet barbecue sauce, but that isn’t the healthiest option is it? So, I was happy when I found this very quick marinade that is light and has basically no carbs. This is also a favorite of my daughter’s and I’m happy serving it to her since it doesn’t need sweet condiments either!
Garlic and Soy Pork Chops
Ingredients
- 2 boneless center-cut pork loin chops, trimmed of all visible fat
- 1/2 Tbsp light soy sauce
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Add all of the ingredients in a large plastic bag and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes and up to 2 hours.
Coat a grill rack or broiler pan rack with cooking spray. Pre-heat the grill or broiler.
Cook the pork chops 4 inches from the heat, turning once halfway through the cooking time, for about 10 to 12 minutes or until a thermometer reads 155F and the juices run clear.
