Manic Monday Meal #3

The weekend is over and it's back to reality! Each Monday we will post a four ingredient or less recipe to help you eat healthy, simply!
Here's this week's recipe:

Chinese Spiced Pork Chops
Ingredients:
4 large pork chops about 7 oz each
1 tbsp Chinese five-spice powder
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp garlic-infused olive oil

Directions:
1.  Arrange the pork chops in a single layer in a non-metallic roasating pan or baking dish.
2.  Sprinkle the five-spice powder over the chops then drizzle over the soy sauce and garlic infused oil.  (Alternatively, mix together the garlic-infused olive oil, soy sauce and five-spice powder, and pour over the chops.)
3.  Using your hands, rub the mixture into the meat.  Cover the dish with clear wrap and chill for 2 hours.
4.  Preheat the oven to 325F.  Uncover the dish and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through and tender.  Serve immediately.
