Sweet Italian Pork Chops

Submitted by Wildflower5656

"I'm calling these Italian only because this recipe was taught to me by an Italian man along side his delicious homemade pasta and tomato sauce. It's a quick, simple marinade for pork. All the measurements are estimates, so feel free to experiment where you see fit!"

 

• Ready In: 1hr 23mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup soy sauce
• 1⁄2 cup molasses
• 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves, chopped (or 1TB dry)
• 2 boneless pork chops

directions

1. Combine all ingrediants in a large Ziplock freezer bag. Seal.
2. Using the palm of your hand, lightly pound the pork chops. I find using your hand works better in this case than a heavy pan or meat mallet as not to tear the Ziplock bag. You don't want to make these too thin, just slightly tenderize them.
3. Refrigerate for approx 1 hour.
4. Grill.
