  • 1 tbsp. Onion Powder
  • 1 tbsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp. Oregano

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

Step 2

Place pork chops in a shallow dish or zip-top bag. Pour marinade over the chops and turn to coat evenly.

Step 3

Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).

Step 4

Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates if needed.

Step 5

Remove pork chops from marinade and grill for 4–5 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and grill marks form.

Step 6

Let pork chops rest for 3–5 minutes before serving.

Step 7

Serve warm with non-starchy veggies or a fresh herb salad and enjoy!
