Boneless pork chops – this recipe begins with boneless pork chops, ideally similar in size so they cook evenly. Salt + pepper – for seasoning the pork chops and enhancing their flavor. Olive oil – to lock in moisture and prevent sticking. Garlic – this is, of course, a star ingredient in the honey garlic sauce. Butter – makes the base of the rich and flavorful sauce. Honey – to make it all sticky and sweet. Apple cider vinegar – the acidity in the apple cider vinegar balances out the other flavors, and we love it because it has more flavor than white vinegar. Soy sauce – to add a salty, umami taste.
Make sure to dry the pork chops well with paper towels before cooking. Don’t skip this step! It helps to give them that beautiful golden crust. After searing them, make sure to reserve any juices. This will add lots of flavor to the sauce. Be careful not to overcook them or they will become chewy, but also make sure they reach an internal temperature of 145 Fahrenheit. Serve them with a generous amount of honey garlic sauce drizzled over them. Because…who doesn’t love sauce?
For a lighter dinner, serve them with a salad like our simple spring mix salad, or sesame coconut kale salad. We also love to riff off the Asian flavors and serve them with pineapple fried rice, paleo cauliflower fried rice, or Asian salad with sesame ginger dressing.
