Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 60 ml Soy sauce
- 45 ml Honey
- 15 ml Rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 15 ml Water
- 30 ml Vegetable oil
- 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds, toasted (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and ground black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and water. Set aside.
In another small dish, mix the cornstarch with 15 ml of water to create a slurry and set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the pork chops to the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Transfer the pork chops to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
Reduce the heat to medium and pour the soy sauce mixture into the skillet. Stir and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the sauce and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.
Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the glaze over them. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to warm them through and coat them in the sauce.
Transfer the glazed pork chops to a serving platter and garnish with thinly sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds, if using.
Serve hot with steamed rice or vegetables of your choice.
