Courtesy of National Pork Board 8 Servings • 10 Min. Cook Time • 6 Hr. Marinate Time
Ingredients
8 boneless ribeye (rib) pork chops, 1-in. thick
2/3 c. lemon juice
1/2 c. olive oil
1 4 1/2-oz. jar garlic, chopped
2 Tbsp. dried tarragon, crushed
paprika

Directions:

1. For marinade, in a small bowl combine lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and tarragon. Place pork chops in a 1-gallon self-sealing plastic bag; pour marinade over chops; seal bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours or overnight.

2. Drain chops, discarding marinade. Place chops on rack in broiler pan so the chops are 4-5 inches from heat. Sprinkle the chops with a little paprika. Broil for 5-6 minutes, turn chops and sprinkle with paprika. Broil for 5-6 minutes more or until internal temperature on a thermometer reads 145°F, followed by a 3-minute rest time.

* Simple marinade that young chefs can help with. Serve with pasta salad and glazed baby carrots.
