Notes
Invent Your Recipe:
This recipe uses a straight-forward marinade for the pork chops. I have a very similar recipe for honey mustard chicken. The marinade is basically the same, except for some garlic and onion powder.
When using the cinnamon in the recipe be careful to only use 1/4 tsp or less. The cinnamon can easily overtake the dish and become the main flavor. Well, if you enjoy cinnamon you can use more, however, I would recommend only the 1/4 tsp or less.
For additional ingredients for the marinade you could add some, just be careful because depending what you add you could lose the honey mustard flavor. For instance, if you like lemon or lime juice in your marinades, then just add a little bit to this recipe, taking care not to drown out the honey or mustard flavor.
