Sweet Italian Pork Chops

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: 1 hr 23 mins
• 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.
