    Italian dressing or any balsamic dressing

    or

    if you don't want to have to let it sit marinading, you can just use a dry rub. I use lemon juice instead of olive oil to get it to stick better. I like using Jerk dry rub or a dry BBQ rub.

    Sounds gross, but tasty...

    Peach preserves and taco seasoning. Mix and then soak the pork chops in it.

    maybe some soy or teriyaki sauce & rice vinegar. I have no proof but I feel like vinegar helps tenderize meats in marinades.

    I haven't made it in a while but rachael ray has a recipe for pork tenderloins that you pan sear and then make a teriyaki/orange/sesame pan sauce for them. I like the orange-sesame-teriyaki combo for pork

    I like to bake mine with a bit of apple juice and chicken broth (or water), surrounded by sliced apples. Sprinkle salt, pepper, and cinnamon (yes, I mean it) over everything. No marinade required!

    (You can also skip the apple juice, since the apples themselves add their flavor to the water and/or broth.)

    (Orange juice with salt, pepper, ginger and maybe a splash of teriyaki might also work -- never tried it, I'm totally making that up! Ha!)

    It's probably totally unhealthy, but Lawrys makes a Hawaiian marinade. It's so good on pork!!

    A little bit of light soy sauce, water, roasted garlic and herb seasoning (I use Weber's), and some oregano. They're the best pork chops ever!

    Soy sauce and honey (or agave), then sprinkle with some cinnamon just before cooking. So good!

    Try a nice dry rub. Stay away from salt. Some cumin, Gound pepper, rub some fresh garlic on it first...

    Do you have a crock pot?

    If so, take a look around here:

    I looooove the peanut butter pork recipe, but haven't tried with pork chops-- the recipe calls for tenderloin.

    If you don't have a crock pot, you can usually just use a dutch oven for these, too.

    This actually sounds yummy! How much peach preserves? And is it one packet of taco seasoning? I think I will try the spicy.

    This sounds yummy too, probably a little high on the sugar though.

    Love Italian dressing marinades on chicken!

    I like a tablespoon of low sodium soy sauce, a T. of apricot or plum preserves, and a bit of garlic. Nice savory sweet glaze to brush over when the chops are near done.

    I think it's about 1/3 cup preserves, and 1-2 tbsp's taco seasoning (or a cajun seasoning). That doesn't make a whole lot, so you may need to increase the proportions depending on how many pork chops you have.

    A can of pineapples. :) Dump over the chops, cook, enjoy! A little sugary but delicious!

    I haven't tried it on pork, but lime margarita mix makes a wonderful marinade for chicken. :heart:
