What You'll Need

1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup honey

What to Do

In a 9- x 13-inch baking dish, combine lemon juice, honey, soy sauce, wine, garlic and pepper; mix well. Add chops, cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight, turning chops over occasionally.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chops, saute for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Pour the marinade over the chops and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and summer for 2 to 3 minutes, or to desired doneness. Serve topped with the sauce.

Notes

For a yummy Asian-inspired side dish, try this Vegetable Stir Fry or our recipe for Cauliflower Fried Rice. They're healthy, low-carb options when you're craving takeout!

It's easy to make your own pork chop marinade. If you want to change it up a little, try our Citrus Ginger Marinade or our Southwestern Lime Marinade.

Absolutely wonderful! My family loved it! They didn't even know they were eating a diabetic food! That marinade is DELICIOUS! I may use that for some other meat dinners.

Hello there! Feel free to replace the wine in this recipe with beef broth, or with nothing at all. Either way will be fine!

This was really nice, so tasty! I served with some mushrooms and a stir fry rice with spring onions and yellow pepper for some colour. So enjoyed this. Two of your recipes in two nights and both big hits. May try this with pork tenderloin if we have company for dinner. Most certainly will have this again.
