EASY SWEET AND SOUR PORK CHOPS



Easy Sweet and Sour Pork Chops image

Being a busy single mom, I look for recipes that are quick, simple and don't have 100 ingredients. This one fits the bill to a T. I've served it to my picky parents and sisters who loved it and my 6 year old always asks for seconds (and even thirds at times)! Original recpie called for equal parts of wet ingredients, but I found it too salty and reduce the soy sauce slightly.

4 -6 thawed pork chops
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup chili sauce

  • Place chops in glass baking dish.
  • Mix honey, chili sauce and soy sauce in a bowl.
  • Pour mixture over pork chops and bake at 350 degrees for one hour or until no longer pink inside.
  • I always make mashed potatos and use the left over juices as a gravy.

CROCK POT SWEET AND SOUR PORK CHOPS



Crock Pot Sweet and Sour Pork Chops image

I found the sweet and sour recipe on betterrecipes.com and adapted it to our fasts. It was originally for Kielbasa but we discovered that this sauce can be used for hot dog topping, pork chops, chicken or anything you would like to use it with. This is our crock pot pork chop version. Let me know if anybody likes it! Sometimes, I add baby corn and a pkg. of frozen chinese style vegetables that I par-cook in the microwave in a little bit of water before I add them to the pan. You can add most anything to this basic recipe and it will still be good.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat mallet to pound them to an even thickness before cooking.
  • For a crispier coating, double-coat the pork chops in the flour mixture before frying.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when frying the pork chops. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the pork chops will not cook evenly.
  • To make sure the sauce is thick and glossy, cook it over medium heat and stir constantly.
  • Serve the sweet and sour pork chops with rice or noodles for a complete meal.

Sweet and sour pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet and sour flavors is sure to please everyone at the table.
