An Asian inspired boneless pork loin chops recipe with ginger, soy and garlic. With a quick and easy marinade, these juicy pork chops make a great meal.
Marinated grilled chicken is an easy go-to when you’re looking for an easy meal. So easy in fact, that pork is often overlooked. Boneless pork loin chops are just as easy to marinate and grill, so you might want to start adding them to your regular meal rotation. Marinate and cook boneless pork loin chops just like you would chicken breast. They come out tender and juicy.
The first time I made this recipe was on a weekend. I looked through my fridge trying to figure out what to make for dinner, and I saw as Asian salad kit. So, I whipped up this marinade with an Asian flare. The whole family loved it. Now it’s a favorite I just had to share. I like to marinate a whole family pack of pork chops, so I can have leftovers during the week. The grilled pork is great on top of salad, making a quick and easy lunch.
Make the Ginger Soy Marinade
The best way to marinate meat is in a zip top bag. When you remove all the air, the meat is completely covered in the marinade. Then, every bite is flavor packed. For less clean-up, mix all the marinade ingredients directly in the bag. For this Asian inspired marinade combine liquid aminos (or soy sauce), olive oil, honey, rice wine vinegar, ground ginger, and crushed fresh garlic. Next, mix the marinade together by squishing the bag with your hand until the honey dissolves into the other ingredients. Finally, add thawed boneless pork loin chops to the bag. Remove all the air and seal the bag. Move the meat around to cover it all in the marinade.
Grill the Marinated Pork Loin Chops
Let the boneless pork loin chops marinate in refrigerator for a couple hours or even overnight. You can also freeze the pork in the marinade for meal prepping (thaw before grilling). Once it’s time to cook, pull the marinating meat out of the refrigerator and heat up your grill. You can use either an indoor or outdoor grill. In our house, I do all the cooking inside, but my husband does the cooking outside. I could probably do it, but he’s so good at it. Heat up the outdoor grill on high. Once it’s hot, place the chops on the grill to sear. Cook for one minute, and turn them over to sear the other side. Cook for an additional minute, then turn the heat down to low. Grill your boneless pork loin chops for an additional 2-3 minutes until the are cooked through.
Let Rest and Garnish
Once the pork chops are finished cooking, remove them from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes. This will make them extra juicy. Garnish with sesame seeds and fresh chives or green onions. Make it a meal with an asian salad and cauliflower rice.
