Teriyaki Style Pork Chops - Wheat Free/Grain Free/Sugar Free/Dairy Free

Teriyaki Style Pork Chops

This is a delicious way to make pork chops and makes a nice change from regular chops.

Marinade:
1/4 C gluten free soy sauce - if you can't find this, you can use Bragg liquid aminos or Shoyu sauce, both of which can usually be found in the health food sections of grocery stores or specialty health food stores.
1/4 C Worcester sauce
If your diet allows honey, you can add 1/4 C honey.  Alternately, you can add another sweetener, but I'm fine with my pork chops not being too sweet anyway, so I just leave it out.

Mix all ingredients and pour over six 1 inch thick pork chops in a shallow dish or pan (I use a large covered tupperware) and place in the refrigerator - I used pork loin chops, you can also use bone in pork chops and other cuts.  Leave in marinade, flipping occasionally for 1-2 hours.  Remove from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature (this will make it cook more evenly and not leave a so much of a pink center with a charred outside).  Then grill on a barbecue or broil in the oven (grilling is so much better though).

The sauce adds only 14 calories and about 2 carbs to each pork chop - probably less since much of it is poured off.
