HONEY GARLIC PORK CHOPS

The people have asked and we have answered! The demand for this recipe has been overwhelming. Since publishing my Easy Honey Garlic Chicken recipe years ago, there has been an influx of emails requesting a honey garlic pork chops recipe! Because what better way is there than to eat pork chops in honey garlic sauce?

Honey garlic sauce makes everything better. Giving us a delightful combination of salty, sweet and creamy, each bite of juicy, tender pork melts in your mouth. The same goes for our honey garlic butter shrimp and our browned butter honey garlic chicken.

Easy pork chop recipes can be hard to come by, but this quick recipe for honey garlic pork chops will make you feel like a pro in the kitchen. Using just a few simple ingredients from your pantry, your pork chops will be packed with flavour. You can stop looking because your search for pork chop recipes is over!

HOW TO AVOID DRY PORK CHOPS

To achieve the ultimate tender pork chops like our creamed spinach stuffed pork chops and our pork chops with creamy mushroom sauce, sear all of your pork chops in a skillet or oven-proof pan first. Then finish off under the broiler (or grill) for a couple of minutes to achieve those crispy edges. That last step is so worth it!

HOW TO MAKE HONEY GARLIC SAUCE FOR PORK CHOPS

How long should you marinate pork chops? Good news – you don’t have to!

Melt butter in the same pan where the pork was seared to keep those flavours in the sauce, then add the rest of your ingredients.
Cook until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly (about 3-4 minutes). Don’t cook for too long, or the honey will reduce ultimately, leaving you with a dry pan. (If that happens, make another batch of sauce only to serve with later.)
Baste pork generously with the sauce, then broil/grill for 1-2 minutes or until edges are slightly charred.

Similar flavours are also featured in mygarlic butter salmon in foil recipe, as well as my honey garlic butter which is perfect for dipping.

ARE YOU CRAVING OVEN-BAKED PORK CHOPS?

Prep: 10 minutes mins

Cook: 12 minutes mins

Total: 22 minutes mins

Serves: 4 people

Ingredients

▢ 4 pork chops bone-in or boneless
▢ 1 pinch salt to season
▢ 1 pinch pepper to season
▢ 1 teaspoon garlic powder
▢ 2 tablespoons olive oil
▢ 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
▢ 6 cloves garlic minced
▢ ¼ cup honey
▢ ¼ cup water or chicken broth
▢ 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar, or any white vinegar

Instructions

Preheat the oven broiler (or grill) to medium-high heat. Season the chops with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before cooking.
Heat oil in a pan or skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sear chops until golden on each side and cooked through (about 4-5 minutes on each side). Transfer to a plate; set aside.
Reduce heat to medium. Melt butter in the same pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Sauté garlic until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Add the honey, water, and vinegar. Increase heat to medium-high and continue to cook until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly (about 3-4 minutes) while stirring occasionally.
Add pork back to the pan, baste generously with the sauce, and broil/grill for 1-2 minutes or until edges are slightly charred.
Garnish with parsley and serve over vegetables, rice, pasta, or salad.

Notes

Baked Pork Chops:

Preheat oven to390°F | 200°C.
Sear seasoned chops in a hot oven-proof pan or skillet over medium-high for 2 minutes per side -- get them crisp.
Remove chops and make your sauce following the recipe above (Step 3).
Baste with sauce and bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until you reach your desired doneness.
Broil/grill for 2 minutes to get those caramelized edges!
