Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, ground black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes (if using). Whisk together until well blended.
Place the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork chops, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for more flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork chops from the marinade, letting any excess marinade drip off. Reserve the remaining marinade for basting.
Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for juicy meat. Avoid overcooking to keep the chops tender.
Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Garnish the pork chops with chopped parsley and serve them warm with your favorite side dishes, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
