Herb-Marinated Pork Chops

Ingredients:
1 lemon, zest grated
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 tbsp minced garlic
1.5 tbsp fresh rosemary
1 tbsp fresh thyme
2 tsp Dijon mustard
Olive oil
2 lbs pork chops
Salt and pepper

Method:
Combine the marinade ingredients in a sturdy 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add the pork chops and turn to coat with the marinade. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag. Marinate the pork in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours but preferably overnight.

Remove the chops from the marinade and discard the marinade but leave the herbs that cling to the meat. Sprinkle the chops generously with salt and pepper. 

Grill over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side until the chops reach an internal temperature between 145 and 150 degrees.

Serve the chops with couscous or rice, grilled fresh vegetables, and corn salsa.

Clarkson Family Recipe Book

I’ve been wanting to digitize the recipes handed down from my Grammie for years. Lately me, my dad, and my brother have struggled to find a way to share recipes—we hate having to slog through the minefields of ad-ladden recipe blogs and sponsored websites where you can only visit once before you have to pay. I decided that the perfect solution to this headache—and the best way to preserve these family recipes—was through a website. Welcome to this place where the recipes have been tested and found true, where nothing is perfect but always yummy, where good food helps make a place a home.
