Cuban Pork

 We discovered this was a great marinade!

Cuban Pork Chops

• 1 tablespoon garlic
• 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 2 tablespoons vegetable/olive oil

Pour/rub over pork chops, marinate for several hours, then bake or grill.

Note: We baked our 4 4-ounce chops for 30 minutes at 350°. That was a bit too long which made them dry, although still delicious. This recipe was created for baking a pork loin roast; next time we do chops, we’ll cook them on the stove and not in the oven. We ate a couple for Sunday dinner, then sliced the remaining ones to be used in sandwiches. That would have been easier to do with a roast.
