Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork chops
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to create the sauce mixture. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the pork chops into the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Reduce the skillet heat to medium. Pour the prepared sauce mixture into the skillet, stirring constantly. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Return the cooked pork chops to the skillet, coating them evenly with the sauce. Let them cook in the sauce for about 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Chop the green onions into thin slices and sprinkle them over the pork chops.
Garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately with rice or vegetables, if desired.
