This simple and savory marinade transforms plain pork chops into something wonderfully Italian. For a casual dinner party, serve the hot chops with a crisp, cool salad of arugula and chopped tomatoes dressed with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. The marinade is also good on boneless chops or pork tenderloins.
