Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the pork chops to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet.
Once the butter is melted, stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the brown sugar and soy sauce to the skillet, stirring until the sugar dissolves and forms a glossy sauce.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, coating them in the glaze.
Cover the skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning the pork chops once, until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 3 minutes before serving.
Drizzle any remaining glaze over the pork chops and serve hot.
