4 (6 ounce) thin-cut bone-in pork chops

½ cup low-sodium soy sauce

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, turning halfway through.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chops from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Look for pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that they are juicy and flavorful.
  • Season the pork chops well: Pork chops are a blank canvas, so don't be afraid to season them liberally. A simple combination of salt, pepper, and garlic powder is a great place to start. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as paprika, cumin, or chili powder.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from drying out. If you cook them over too high heat, they will quickly become tough and chewy.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to the desired doneness: The internal temperature of the pork chops should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 160 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, there is a pork chop recipe out there for you.
