Tips:
- Choose quality pork fillets to ensure tenderness and flavor.

- Marinate the pork chops with the salt, pepper, and a bit of the sauce mixture for at least 30 minutes for a more intense flavor.
- To add a depth of flavor, consider browning the pork chops in a skillet before transferring them to the oven.
