Marinated Pork Chops - Courtesy Adam Lewis

Adam introduced this easy recipe at a casual dinner one night and I've made it a dozen times since. I did add a few things but it's almost identical to the flavorful meal we enjoyed over a year ago.

Red Wine Marinated Pork Chops
Serves 4
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Inactive Prep Time: 24 hours
 

• 4 six-eight ounce center cut pork chops, trimmed. Score any remaining fat.
• 1 cup red wine, such as Pinot Noir of Syrah
• 2 tbsp chopped garlic
• 1 sliced onion
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste

Pound the chops to 1/4-1/2 inch thick.
In a 1-gallon sized plastic storage bag, combine all ingredients for the marinade. Add the pork chops and make sure to coat evenly. Allow to marinate for 2-24 hours.
Remove chops from the marinade and pat dry, removing all specs of garlic or onion, as these will burn.
Over medium-high heat, add 1-2 tbsp of vegetable oil and heat until shimmering.
Add the chops, searing 5-7 minutes per side, depending on thickness.
