Ingredients
  

  • 4 pork chops bone-in or boneless
  • 1 pinch salt for seasoning
  • 1 pinch pepper for seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder for seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for searing
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter for sautéing
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ cup honey adds sweetness
  • ¼ cup chicken broth for sauce base
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar, or white vinegar for acidity
  • 1-2 tablespoons water optional, to adjust sauce consistency

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven broiler (or grill) to medium-high heat. Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before cooking. prep
  2. Heat the olive oil in a pan or skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sear the pork chops until golden on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside. prep
  3. Reduce the heat to medium. Melt the butter in the same pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. prep
  4. Add the honey, chicken broth, and vinegar to the pan. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly. If the sauce becomes too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to adjust the consistency. mix
  5. Return the pork chops to the pan, generously baste with the sauce, and broil or grill for 1-2 minutes until the edges are slightly charred. finish
