Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces pork chops Bone-in or boneless, your choice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce Use low-sodium if preferred
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar Can substitute with a sugar substitute for lower carbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced For enhanced flavor
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika Adds a nice smoky flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil, garlic, black pepper, and smoked paprika until smooth.
  2. Place the pork chops in a ziplock bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them.
  3. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 4 hours, the longer the better.
Cooking
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Grill the pork chops for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they’re cooked through.
  3. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving to lock in all that juicy goodness.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a squeeze of fresh lime or lemon juice to the marinade. Don’t skip the marinating step, as it’s key to achieving tender, flavorful pork chops. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
