Honey Soy Pork Chops

These easy honey soy pork chops are fast, easy to make, and have the perfect savory-sweet sauce!

I don’t make pork chops too often, but I enjoyed these pork chops with apples so much that I decided to make another easy boneless pork chops recipe.

The honey-garlic-soy sauce for the chops is really simple to make. It has butter, chicken broth, soy sauce, honey, and garlic. Ingredients you’re likely to have on-hand already, basically.

To make this recipe, you sear the pork chops until they’re golden on each side, take them out of the pan, make the sauce, add the chops back to the pan, and then cover and cook a few minutes until they’re done. The whole process only takes about half an hour… not bad.

Pro tip: I used regular soy sauce and chicken broth for this recipe, and I found it was too salty (even for me, and that’s saying something!), so I strongly suggest using the low-sodium versions or serving this recipe with unsalted side dishes.

These pork chops would de delicious served with steamed veggies and mashed potatoes or rice.

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 18 minutes

Total Time 28 minutes

Servings 4

Author Salt & Lavender

Ingredients

• 4 boneless pork loin center chops (about 1" thick)
• Pepper to taste
• Flour for dredging
• 2 tablespoons butter divided
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth or stock
• 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 4 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

1. Sprinkle the pork chops with  pepper, and then dredge them in flour.

2. Add 1 tbsp of the butter + the olive oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan's hot, add the pork. Cook it for 3-4 minutes/side or until it has a nice golden crust.

3. Take the pork chops out of the pan and set aside. 

4. Take the pan off the heat and add the chicken broth, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and remaining butter. Return the pan to the heat and cook for about a minute. 

5. Add the pork back to the pan, reduce the heat to medium-low (or low heat if it's cast iron), cover the pan, and let the pork cook for 3 minutes or until it's fully cooked. 

Recipe Notes

• I used boneless pork chops, but you could definitely use bone-in ones. If your pork chops are slightly thicker or slightly less thick than the ones I bought (mine were about 1" thick), adjust cooking time accordingly. 
• I used my trusty 10-1/4" Lodge cast iron skillet to make this recipe.
