Notes
Helpful tips
Because you are going to make these chops both on the stove top and in the oven, I recommend cooking them with a cast iron skillet, which can be used in both places.
I use fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme, but if you don't have fresh, dried are fine as well.
If you haven't tried garlic paste, you don't know what you're missing. I do use fresh garlic in my cooking as well, but in marinades, I love to add the paste as it melds into the meat easily. If you can't find garlic paste, add crushed garlic cloves (as many as you like).
Even though I don't really like to use plastic, I almost always marinate meat in a zip lock gallon bag. Mainly because I can massage the meat through the bag as it marinates.
