A unique way to prepare pork chops. Similar to teriyaki sauce, but with a nice touch of heat. Pairs nicely with broccoli and rice. It’s ideal to use thicker pork chops. I haven’t experimented with marinating longer than 3 hours, but it might be excellent.
Korean Style Pork Chops
Ingredients
4 Cloves Garlic, minced
1 Tsp Ginger, minced
1/4 Cup Soy Sauce (Low Sodium)
2 Tbsp Honey
1 Tsp Sesame Oil
2 Tsp Gochujang (Red Chili Paste), or Sriracha
4 Pork Chops (Boneless)
1 Tsp Olive Oil
Black Pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Prepare the marinade. In a medium size bowl whisk together the soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, sesame oil and gochujang.
Pour over pork chops and let marinade for about 2-3 hours (min 20 minutes).
Heat the olive oil in a large stainless or cast iron skillet on medium high heat. Add pork chops, without marinade, and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they get a nice brown color.
Add the marinade to the skillet and put it in the oven to finish cooking. Roast for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until pork chops are completely cooked (145°F).
