There is nothing easier than marinading some meat all day, then throwing it in the oven for a couple minutes and having dinner done! That's why you have to try my brown sugar garlic pork chops.
Start by marinading the pork. Place all ingredients (except salt, pepper and brown sugar) and the pork chops in a baggie. Mix it all around and seal the baggie very tight. I like to place the baggie in a Tupperware container just to make sure it does not leak. Place that in the fridge for at least an hour or up to all day.
Once ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil and grease with cooking spray.
Place pork chops on the baking tray, in a single layer, sprinkle with the salt and pepper. DO NOT throw the marinade away. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, flipping halfway, or until fully cooked. I like to use a meat thermometer to know exactly when the pork is done.
While the pork is cooking, heat a small pan over medium/high heat. Once heated, pour in the marinade and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add in the brown sugar, if you want to use that. Stir together until the brown sugar is dissolved. Stir and scrape up the bottom every minute until the sauce is thickened. It will be done when the pork chops are done.
Once the pork chops are done, cover them in some of the thickened sauce and enjoy!
