Sauce
- 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce low-sodium recommended
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 3 tbsp ketchup
- 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 clove garlic minced
- 1 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
Pork Chops
- 4 bone-in pork chops
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Set aside a baking sheet.
In a medium bowl, mix together soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar and oil.
Pat dry the pork chops with paper towels. Then rub HALF of the sauce on the pork chops.
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and pork chops, taking care not to crown them in the pan.
Cook the chops for 3 minutes without moving them.
Transfer your pork chops to the baking sheet (or if you're using an ovenproof skillet you can transfer to the oven directly). Add the remaining sauce on top.
Bake for 15-18 minutes (see note). Optional: broil for the final 2 minutes to get a golden crust.
Remove from the oven. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving to preserve juiciness. Enjoy!
- You can replace apple cider vinegar with white wine vinegar.
- If you use a loin chop or thicker chop, add extra time depending on the size of the chop.
- Cooking time should be 15-18 minutes for 1-inch (2.5 cm) thick, bone-in chops that have been seared before baking. Add 2 more minutes if NOT seared. Add an extra two minutes per additional 1/4-inch (0.6 cm) thickness.
- You can bake the potatoes and vegetable together with your pork chops for a complete meal. Note that vegetables might need less time, while potatoes might need to be baked longer.
