Marinated Seared Pork Chops

 

In this post I’ll be sharing a recipe for Marinated Seared Pork Chops.

This cut pork chops are always a treat for dinner. Marinating pork chops and pan searing them adds so much flavor to a meat that can be rather bland in flavor. Pork chops require adding all of the flavor that you can for a delicious meal.

You family will love these pork chops and best of all, they’re not difficult to prepare. The marinade I’ve prepared includes seasonings that we enjoy.

Feel free to switch up those seasonings and herbs to suit your family’s tastes to ensure that everyone loves their dinner.
