When I went grocery shopping last Sunday, I got some boneless pork ribs. I almost bought a bottle of lemon garlic marinade for the ribs but decided not to get it.
I decided to make my own lemon garlic marinade for the ribs instead of buying that bottle.
When I served dinner last night, Hubby was delighted with the ribs. Since there were a couple left over, he claimed them as his own for our left over night. So I think this marinade is a winner.
This marinade would be good on pork chops, boneless pork ribs, pork roast, or even chicken breast.
Bonus: It’s Whole30 friendly.
Oh, and I finally figured out how to make my recipes printer friendly. That’s been a big problem during the 7 years I’ve had this blog.
