How to Make Amazing Pork Chop Or Chicken Marinade

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes until the sugar is dissolved.
  2. Add the pork chops or chicken breasts to a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring it's fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated pork chops or chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly caramelized.
  4. Pour any remaining marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for at least 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. This helps to reduce the risk of foodborne illness.
  5. Brush the cooked meat with the reduced marinade and serve immediately. Enjoy!
