Honey Garlic Pork Chops & Carrots Foil Packets – Slow Cooker
A no-mess, flavor-packed dinner where tender pork chops steam over sweet carrots in a rich honey garlic glaze. Everything cooks together inside foil packets for maximum juiciness and easy cleanup.
Ingredients
For the Pork & Carrots
- 4 pork chops (boneless or bone-in)
- 2 cups baby carrots
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Honey Garlic Glaze
- ¼ cup honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter
Instructions
Step 1 — Prepare the Foil Packets
- Cut 4 large sheets of aluminum foil (big enough to fold and seal).
- Divide the baby carrots evenly in the center of each foil sheet.
Step 2 — Season the Pork
- Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels.
- Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
- Place one pork chop on top of the carrots in each packet.
Step 3 — Make the Honey Garlic Glaze
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, ketchup, paprika, and olive oil (or melted butter) until well combined.
Step 4 — Assemble the Packets
- Spoon the glaze generously over each pork chop, making sure some sauce drips onto the carrots.
- Fold the foil over the pork and carrots and seal tightly to lock in the steam and juices.
Step 5 — Slow Cook
- Place the sealed foil packets into the slow cooker (crockpot).
- Cook on LOW for 5–6 hours or on HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the pork is tender and fully cooked.
Step 6 — Finish & Serve
- Carefully open the foil packets (watch out for hot steam).
- Spoon the extra sauce from the foil over the pork chops and carrots before serving.
