“My husband loves pork chops. They're a good source of lean protein and it's easy to change the flavor by using different spices. I created this marinade based on a few I saw in Healthy Cooking.” Jackie Termont - Richmond, Virginia

Ingredients

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons white wine or reduced-sodium chicken broth
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/4 teaspoon dill weed
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 boneless pork loin chops (4 ounces each)

Directions

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the vinegar, wine, 1 teaspoon oil, chili powder, horseradish, dill, garlic powder and salt. Add the pork chops; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate for eight hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
Drain and discard marinade. In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook chops in remaining oil for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
