- 1/2 cup soy sauce (low sodium option if preferred)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, oregano, and pepper until combined.
- Place four pork chops in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the pork chops, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Seal the bag or cover the dish.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for deeper flavor.
- Remove pork chops from the marinade, discard the remaining liquid, and cook using your preferred method (grill or oven).
Notes
- For a citrus-garlic flavor, substitute the apple cider vinegar with fresh lemon juice.
- For a honey-mustard variation, add 2 tablespoons of honey to the base recipe.
- If you plan to cook the next day, an overnight marinade works well.
