Honey Garlic Pork Chops Recipe

Honey Garlic Pork Chops Recipe

Ingredients:

4 boneless pork chops
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup honey
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp Dijon mustard (optional)
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Preparation:

Season the Pork Chops: Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper.

Cook the Pork Chops: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should be 145°F or 63°C). Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.

Make the Honey Garlic Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard (if using), and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir and simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

Coat the Pork Chops: Return the pork chops to the skillet and coat them with the honey garlic sauce, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes, flipping the chops to ensure both sides are coated.

Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.

Enjoy your flavorful and tender Honey Garlic Pork Chops!
