My husband is allergic to onions…any suggestions to substitute the onion soup mix?
Just found your sight last week and have made numerous recipes already! My husband is in love with you! grrrrrrrrrrrr Just kidding. I do have a question on this recipe. You say to use boneless pork chops, however the picture shows with bone. Which is it or does it matter? Can’t wait to make this one!!! Sorry for the line of drool…………………………………………..
I used my pork tenderloin. This made a great supper. Marinaded yesterday and have the 2nd dinner tonight from the this. Added to my list of new receipes. Thank you for all the work and the tips.
I wonder how this would be with a Pork Tenderloin? I have a tenderloin in my freezer and I'm dieing to use it for something healthy and delicious!
This recipe is excellent! Quick, simple and easy. The taste & flavor is delicious. I highly recommend and will definitely be making this again! I broiled my pork chops and won't discard the remaining marinade right away, as I would continue to use it for basting as you broil (depending on the thickness of the pork chop).
