Ingredients for Apricot Pork Chops
- 1 cup apricot preserves
- Italian Dressing
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

- 4 boneless pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
How to Make Apricot Pork Chops
- In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 1 cup apricot preserves, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
- Add the pork chops to the bag, ensuring they are fully coated in the marinade.
- Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, turning occasionally.
- Reserve 1/2 cup of the marinade and refrigerate.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill the pork chops for 4-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through, brushing frequently with the reserved marinade during the last few minutes of grilling.
- Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
