Ingredients
- 4 6-oz. boneless pork chops
- 3 cloves garlic pressed
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary crushed
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
- DO-AHEAD TIP: Marinate pork chops overnight or for at least 4 hours (see recipe).
- Place pork chops in a large zipper-topped plastic bag.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together next 8 ingredients (garlic through salt) until well blended. Pour mixture over pork chops, seal bag and turn to coat completely. Refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours.
- At time of cooking, melt the ghee (or coconut oil) in a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. Remove pork chops from marinade (reserving marinade) and cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side or until cooked through.
