I made this using thin cut pork chops. I let it set for about 45 minutes and the flavor was still fantastic. I did not cook them in the oven with sesame oil, instead I grilled them and served with a bean sprout stir fry, in which I included the sesame oil and left over marinade (boiled down to reduce) to give the same flavors, and brown rice. It was delicious and easy. <br/>I also didn't use 2 cups of garlic, but a tablespoon of minced, along with grated galangal instead of ginger because that is all I had.
