Ginger Pork Chops

I suggested to Jon that we try to do Meatless Mondays and his response to "What do you want for dinner on Monday?" was "We haven't had pork chops in a while!"  Oh well, I tried.  I serve this with my Asian Qunioa.

 Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup orange juice (I used Simple Orange with a hint of Mango)
  • 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
  • 2 tablespoons grated orange zest
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 6 pork loin chops, 1/2 inch thick
Directions
  1. In a shallow container, mix together orange juice, soy sauce, ginger, orange zest, garlic, and salt. Add pork chops, and turn to coat evenly. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight. Turn the pork chops in the marinade occasionally.
  2. Preheat oven to broil (high), and lightly spray broiler pan.
  3. Broil pork chops for 8 minutes per side and let sit for 5 minutes.  See my Broiling Pork Chops post for detailed notes on how to broil.
