Honey Soy Sauce Pork Chops

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

4 boneless pork chops

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)

1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

Directions

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

Add 1 tbsp of the butter + the olive oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan's hot, add the pork. Sear the pork chops for 3-5 minutes/side or until golden (3 minutes for thinner chops and 5 minutes for pork chops up to 1" thick), then transfer them to a plate.

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.

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 teaspoon of cold water, then pour it into the skillet and give it a stir.

Add the pork chops back to the pan (along with any juices on the plate) and continue cooking until the sauce has reduced a bit and the pork is fully cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. You may need to reduce the heat so it's not bubbling furiously. Serve immediately.
