Ingredients

4 bone-in pork chops, about 1 inch thick

¼ cup honey

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium)

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon ground ginger

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt, to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, ground ginger, and black pepper until well combined.

Season the pork chops with salt on both sides.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork chops. Sear the chops for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are nicely browned.

Reduce the heat to medium and pour the honey garlic sauce over the seared pork chops. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, occasionally spooning the sauce over the chops until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the sauce thickens slightly.

Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the skillet and allow them to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

Drizzle any remaining sauce from the skillet over the pork chops and garnish with fresh parsley.
