These brown sugar pork chops are the easiest and most delicious way to transform pork chops into something incredible!

Ingredients

  • 75g / 1/3 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 2 tbsp EACH: Light Soy Sauce, Water
  • 1.5 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 tsp EACH: Dijon Mustard, Worcestershire Sauce
  • 4x 5oz/150g boneless Pork Loin Chops, (brought close to room temp (see notes))
  • 1/2 tsp EACH: Smoked Paprika, Garlic Powder, Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • 3 tbsp / 45g Unsalted Butter
  • drizzle of Olive Oil

Directions

  1. 1

    In a small mixing bowl whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, water, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Place to one side.

  2. 2

    Coat the pork chops in salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Add a drizzle of oil to a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add in the pork chops and fry both sides for around 3 minutes, or until they've built up a crust on both sides and are just about cooked through the centre. Stack them on top of each other with the strips of fat aligning, then sear for a few mins until deep golden with the fat rendered down. Rest the chops to one side and lower the heat to medium.

  4. 4

    Melt in the butter, then give the sauce a quick whisk and pour it in. Stir and simmer for 4-5mins, or until it thickens to a thin caramel consistency. Pour in the resting juices from the pork and simmer for a further 30 seconds to re-thicken, then add the pork chops in.

  5. 5

    Coat in the glaze then serve up with more glaze drizzled on top. Enjoy!
