These soy and honey glazed pork chops are a delightful combination of savory and sweet flavors. The marinade infuses the pork chops with a rich taste, while grilling them adds a smoky char. Serve these delicious pork chops with steamed vegetables and rice for a satisfying meal.

Ingredients

• 4 pork chops
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
• Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)

Directions

1. In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to combine the marinade.
2. Place the pork chops in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the pork chops are coated well. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld.
3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
4. Remove the marinated pork chops from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
5. Grill the pork chops for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium. Brush the pork chops with the marinade while grilling to enhance the flavor.
6. Once cooked, transfer the pork chops to a platter and let them rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute and keeps the meat juicy.
7. Garnish with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro, if desired.
8. Serve the soy and honey glazed pork chops hot with steamed vegetables and rice. Enjoy!
