   Step 2: Remove the pork chops from the marinade and discard the used marinade. Heat 1/4 cup of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, or preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Cook the chops about 4 minutes on each side, until an instant-read thermometer registers at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Let rest for at least 3 minutes before serving.
