- Ingredients:

- Serves:
-
6
ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup water
- 1⁄3 cup light soy sauce
- 1⁄4 cup vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 6 pork loin chops, fat removed
directions
- In deep bowl mix all marinade ingredients.
- Marinate at least 2 hours.
- Remove from marinade and cook over medium-high heat on greased grill for no more than 15 minutes or until done. Cooking time for second side is shorter by 1-2 minutes. 3/4" or thinner, 5-6 minutes maximum per side, thicker than 3/4" 6-7 minutes maximum per side. DO NOT OVER_GRILL, chops will become tough. After 2 minutes grilling on a side, rotate chops 45 degrees for even cooking. Turn over when juices pool on upper surface and meat appears to be cooked half-way through.

someone asked a question which was never answered and I agree with the concern. You ask for 3 tablespoons of lemon pepper seasoning which seems way too much, did you mean 3 teaspoons? Not going to waste chops if this is not answered and the ingredient is wrong. -
The photo doesn't match the description. It shows being cooked in a pan, not on a grill. Also what is the green stuff in the photo? Not in the ingredients list... -
Can you eliminate the lemon pepper for kids? Not sure if mine would like the pepper. What could I use In its place? Thanks for the help!

Can I use olive oil instead of vegetable oil.

WOW!!!!! These are soooooo good! I only let them marinate for 2 hours and they were great. I would, however, marinate them for longer as the flavour would be better. I took one of the other reviewers advice and cut back on the oil. As well, I added one more garlic clove (love garlic!) Thanks for posting this, I will definately make this again!!! -
I do not usually like pork chops because they are so dry. These were absolutely marvelous. The marinade on these made them so very moist. I did marinade the chops for about four hours. My teenaged son thought that they were wonderful. That is quite a compliment.

The marinade was delicious! I think next time I will marinade for longer than 2 hours though. GREAT marinade, thanks!

This is a great marinade! I used it on chicken as well. It is really good for grilling skinless chicken because the marinade adds fat so the chicken doesn't burn. I think the next time I make it, though, I will reduce the amount of oil. -
Fantastic and easy recipe. I marinaded them over night and they were delicious.

I used pork tenderloin instead of pork chops. It turned out very good. It was one of the best grilled pork tenderloins we have ever had. Thanks!

Less Lemon Pepper seasoning.
-
I used low sodium soy sauce, and fresh lemon and fresh ground black pepper in place of the lemon pepper. Very good! -
- added 4 tbsp adobo seasoning to sprinkle on cutlets (this amount was enough to cover both sides of 8 cutlets)

Its getting extremely warm where i live and my partner and i wanted to find a good recipe for grilling pork chops to minimize the heat comming out of our kitchen. However we didnt find a good recipe...we found a GREAT recipe!!!!!!!! The marinade was soooo easy and even more delicious! We made them last night for dinner and had some unexpected freinds over and they were such a hit!!! We are using the marinade for bbq chicken breast tonight because it was that good! The only i did different was substitute olive oil for vegetable oil.
