Ingredients

2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp ground mustard
1 tsp dry oregano
1/4 cup olive oil or oil of choice
2 tsp liquid aminos or light soy sauce
1/4 cup red wine vinegar or vinegar of choice
1/4 cup chicken broth
3 lbs boneless pork chops or meat/vegetables of choice

Instructions

Combine all ingredients except the pork in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Place the pork (or chosen protein/vegetables) in a large resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the contents, seal the bag, and turn it several times to coat everything evenly.
Let the meat marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes or refrigerate up to 24 hours for deeper flavor. When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Transfer the pork and remaining marinade to a 3-quart casserole dish.
Bake at 450°F for about 20 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of at least 145°F (63°C). Remove from the oven and let rest for at least 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with your preferred sides.
