Cover the dish or seal the bag eliminating as much air as possible, and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours. Halfway through the marinating time, turn the chops.
Cook the pork chops to an internal temperature of 145° F. (Use your oven’s meat thermometer if you have one.) This takes 10 - 15 minutes depending on the thickness of the chops.
Remove the chops from the oven, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes.
Pork chops – You can use any type of pork chops that you like. If they are thinner, the bake time will be shorter but if you use a meat thermometer, you’ll know when they are done. These thick chops do work best IMO.
Brewed Coffee - Use the leftover coffee from breakfast.
Wine or apple juice – It doesn’t matter. If you have some flat white wine in the fridge, you could use it; otherwise, a sparkling apple cider is a nice substitute.
Bake or Grill – It doesn’t matter. In the winter we bake, in the summer we grill.
Suggested sides – Any type of salad works for us – vegetable salad, fruit salad or fruit and veggie salad. It’s all good!
