HONEY-SOY GLAZED PORK CHOPS
I found this recipe on another website, however I do not remember which one. This is quick and easy to prepare. The sauce is delicious served over rice. Do not cook the sauce too long as the soy sauce can become very intense. I usually double the sauce mixture and garlic but that is just my preference.

SOY GLAZED PORK CHOPS
Steps:
- Use paper towel to pat dry the pork. Mix all the other ingredients in a small bowl, except the oil for cooking. Place the pork chops in the bowl, cover them with the marinate and let it marinate at least 30 minutes, up to 12 hours' time permitting in the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 375°. Use paper towel to pat the pork of any excess marinade. Heat the oil in a large ovenproof skillet over high heat, add the pork chops and reduce the heat to medium-high. Seat the pork on both sides, 2 minutes each side, and then baste them with the marinade. Place the pan in the oven. Cook for about 10 minutes, turning once and basting generously with marinade. Remove from the oven and tent the pork in aluminum foil until ready to serve.
Tips:
- Choose thick-cut, bone-in pork chops for the best flavor and juiciness.
- Make sure the pork chops are at room temperature before cooking them. This will help them cook evenly.
- Sear the pork chops in a hot skillet until they are browned on both sides. This will help to seal in the juices and prevent them from drying out.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the pork chops for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. You can insert a meat thermometer to check for doneness; the internal temperature should read 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Make the soy glaze while the pork chops are cooking. This will give the glaze time to thicken and develop its flavor.
- Brush the soy glaze on the pork chops during the last few minutes of cooking. This will help to caramelize the glaze and give the pork chops a delicious sticky coating.
- Serve the soy-glazed pork chops with your favorite sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
Soy-glazed pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The pork chops are juicy and flavorful, and the soy glaze adds a sweet and savory flavor that is sure to please everyone. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special dish to serve at a dinner party, soy-glazed pork chops are a great choice.
