Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 2 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Onion powder
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 0.5 teaspoons Red chili flakes
- 1 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and brown sugar.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of each chop. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes on each side, until browned. This step is optional but adds extra flavor.
In the slow cooker, whisk together the chicken broth, tomato paste, red chili flakes, Worcestershire sauce, and honey until well combined.
Place the seared pork chops into the slow cooker, ensuring they are evenly spaced and submerged in the sauce. Spoon some sauce over the top of the chops.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours, or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.
Serve the pork chops hot, spooning the spicy sauce over the top. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
