Quick and Easy Grilled Pork Chops (Or Chicken)(3 Ingredients)

Recipe #97695 | 13 min | 5 min prep | add private note

I have a good friend who fixes these for church potluck dinners. He gets up early to make a large pan and he never has any leftover. So easy and cheap! I toss everything in a ziploc bag the night before, and they will fall apart when cooked. These can be placed in a ziploc bag with the dressing marinade and frozen, then simply defrost overnight in the refrigerator and cook as usual.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) bottle Italian salad dressing (any variety, even the cheap stuff will work)

  • 4-6 pork chops (this works well with boneless chicken breast also, but I prefer the pork)
  • 1/2 cup melted butter

Directions

  1. 1
    Place the pork chops or chicken into a large ziploc bag or bowl with a lid (not a metal container).
  2. 2
    Pour salad dressing in the bag or bowl.
  3. 3
    Marinate at least 4 hours or overnight, turning the bag or shaking up the bowl 3 or 4 times.
  4. 4
    (I do the overnight marinade in a bag).
  5. 5
    Place the chops on a hot grill and cook until juices run clear.
  6. 6
    Baste these with butter as they cook so they stay tender.
  7. 7
    Serve with your favorite BBQ sides.

This produced a very nice tasting pork chop. I ended up pan frying the chops and using a small amount of butter. I also paired them with fresh garden beans with a bit of Italian dressing. I chose not to award the stars as I didn't follow the recipe exactly. As is I would have given 4 stars, likely if grilled with butter it would have been 5. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

    Quick and easy. I did not baste the chops in butter. I poured some olive oil in a pan and fry them up. I paired it up with green beans slightly seasoned with the same dressing, that was left over in the bottle. Overall a good OAMC recipe.

    Great recipe and so easy!! I made these using Italian Salad Dressing Mix Italian Dressing Seasoning Dry Mix with 5 boneless pork chops and it turned out so well! I bought more pork chops and during my once a month cooking blitz put a few in a zip lock bag added the dressing and threw it into the freezer. I will defrost these overnight and be ready for a great dinner. Thanks again!

    I have used Italian Salad Dressing to marinate chicken breasts but never thought to use it on pork chops. The chops turned out tender and moist (not dried out at all). I think basting them with the butter is the secret. Thanks for sharing this quick and easy recipe, Foxysnana, I'll be making this over and over again.
