Easy Pork Chop Marinade

One of the best ways to inject flavor – and ensure your pork doesn’t dry out when cooking – is to marinate pork before cooking.

I prefer to marinate overnight – but even 30 minutes marinating goes a long way to add flavor to pork chops.

While you can make a marinade, I prefer just tossing pork chops in a bowl or plastic bag and adding up to 1 bottle of Italian salad dressing (use enough to cover chops.)
