Pork Chops with a Sweet Chili Soy Sauce

I wanted to prepare a quick and easy pork chop recipe, so I combined sweet chili sauce with a bit of soy sauce to create a sweet, salty, and spicy sauce to top the chops. This easy thick-cut pork chop recipe was a big hit with my husband and me, but my kids thought the sauce was too spicy, so they ate them plain. I served these tasty pork chops with my spicy peanut Asian salad and a avocado cucumber salad.

Pork Chops with a Sweet Chili Soy Sauce

Pork:

• 3 thick-cut pork chops
• Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
• Garlic powder, to taste
• 1 tbsp olive oil or butter

How to Make Pork Chops with a Sweet Chili Soy Sauce:

Season the pork chops with sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and garlic powder to taste.

Grill the pork chops by heating a grill pan over medium-high heat and coating it with olive oil cooking spray. Once the pan is hot, add the pork and cook for 4-5 minutes before flipping over.

Flip over and cook on the other side for 4-5 minutes, until an internal temperature reaches 135-140 degrees using a meat thermometer.

Meanwhile, heat the sauce by combining the sweet chili sauce and soy sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat and cooking for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until hot.

Serve the pork with the sauce drizzled over the chops, and serve with the remaining sauce on the side. Enjoy.
