How to Make Baked Coca Cola Pork Chops
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup Coca-Cola, 1/2 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Place 4 pork chops (about 1 inch thick) in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the Coca-Cola mixture over the pork chops, ensuring both sides are coated.
- Marinate for at least 15 minutes (longer is better!).
- Arrange pork chops in a single layer in a baking dish.
- Pour remaining marinade over the chops.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as rice, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
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!
