Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 center-cut pork chops
  • 4 tbsp brown sugar
  • 6 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • Peanut or other oil, for grilling

Instructions:

  1. Preparation:

    • Begin by trimming any excess fat from the pork chops. Using a fork, prick both sides of the chops and set them aside.
  2. Marinade:

    • In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, ground ginger, and minced garlic. Pour half of this marinade into a shallow pan and add the pork chops. Reserve the remaining marinade for later use.
  3. Marinating:

    • Pour the remaining marinade over the chops in the pan. Refrigerate for up to 8 hours, turning the chops occasionally to ensure even marination.
  4. Grill Preparation:

    • If grilling outdoors, prepare the grill by spraying the grill rack with non-stick spray before heating. Alternatively, preheat the broiler if cooking indoors.
  5. Honey Glaze:

    • In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, and sesame oil. Cook over low heat until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove the glaze from the heat.
  6. Grilling:

    • Remove the pork chops from the marinade and discard the excess marinade. Drizzle both sides of the chops lightly with peanut or other oil.
    • Grill the chops directly over the coals or heat source until they are lightly charred. Turn the chops and grill the opposite side.
    • Once both sides are grilled, move the chops away from direct heat.
  7. Glazing:

    • Brush the grilled chops generously with the honey glaze. Cover the grill and continue cooking, turning and basting the chops several times, until the meat is cooked through. This typically takes about 30 minutes, or until a cut towards the bone section shows no blood and only pale pink to browned meat.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve these succulent Honey Grilled Pork Chops hot off the grill, paired with your favorite side dishes such as steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad. Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal. Enjoy this exquisite dish with friends and family, savoring every tender, juicy bite that’s sure to impress even the most discerning palates.
