Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops
- 6 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons Fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 stalks Green onions, for garnish
- 2 cups Cooked jasmine rice, for serving
Instructions
Rinse the pork chops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a large mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, finely chopped onion, fish sauce, soy sauce, honey, oyster sauce, ground black pepper, and vegetable oil. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the pork chops to the bowl and thoroughly coat each piece with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for deeper flavor.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork chops from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Reserve the remaining marinade for basting later.
Place the pork chops on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Flip the chops occasionally to achieve even browning and grill marks.
During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the pork chops with the reserved marinade for added flavor. Avoid using the marinade in the final moments of cooking to ensure it fully cooks through.
Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve with steamed jasmine rice on the side. Enjoy your Suon Uop Hanh Toi Nuong!
