HONEY GARLIC PORK CHOPS
INGREDIENTS
4 pork chops bone in or out
Salt and pepper, to season
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
6 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup water (or chicken broth)
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar, or any white vinegar)
Instructions:
Pan-seared Pork Chops:
a. Turn on your oven broiler or preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
b. Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, and garlic powder just prior to cooking.
c. In a skillet or pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. When hot, sear the pork chops until they’re golden and cooked thoroughly, roughly 4-5 minutes per side. Once done, transfer them to a plate and set aside.
d. On medium heat, melt butter in the same skillet. Scrape any browned bits from its bottom. Add garlic and sauté until aromatic, which should take around 30 seconds.
e. Pour in the honey, water, and vinegar. Turn the heat up to medium-high and let the sauce simmer until it thickens a bit, which will take about 3-4 minutes. Remember to stir occasionally.
f. Return the pork chops to the skillet, and generously baste them with the sauce. Broil or grill them for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the edges get a slight char.
g. For serving, garnish with parsley. These pork chops go great with vegetables, rice, pasta, or even a fresh salad.
