Description
These soy and honey glazed pork chops bring Asian flavors to the table to create a delicious sweet and salty main dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 pork chops (thick, not thin cut)
- 1 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp ginger minced
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- Green onion (optional)
- Sesame seed (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Mix together the honey, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger in a large ziplock bag. Add in the pork chops and shake to coat the pork chops evenly. Let marinade for 20-30 minutes.
- Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Add in the pork chops, reserving the marinade, and cook for about 3-5 minutes until a golden brown color. Flip the pork chops and cook the other side until a similar color.
- Add the skillet into the oven and cook for 6-10 minutes, or until no longer raw. *You don’t want to overcook them so they become dry!*
- While the pork chops are cooking, add the reserved marinade into a small pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 2-3 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally.
- Serve the pork chops over rice with plenty of the thickened marinade drizzled on top. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion.
