I’ve been embracing easy, brief food and those beef chops are best.
So mix together honey, lemon juice, minced garlic, and soy sauce for the glaze. i really like that it’s most effective four substances and ones that I commonly have on hand! The glaze is sweet, however now not too candy the lemon juice and garlic deliver it plenty of zip, and the soy sauce adds that salty richness. you can additionally make the glaze beforehand of time (the night time before/inside the morning/at nap time) to assist streamline the cooking system.

- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 4 boneless pork chops (3/4-1" thick)
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 2-3 Tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- To make the glass, whisk the honey, lemon juice, minced garlic, and soy sauce collectively in a bowl, or shake it up in a jar. (This step can be done beforehand of time and saved inside the refrigerator until you're geared up to cook the beef chops.)
- warmness 2-three Tablespoons olive oil in a big (12") skillet over medium to medium-high warmness, till the oil shimmers.
- Season the pork chops on each facets with salt and pepper. cautiously add them to the skillet and let them brown (3-4 mins).
- while they may be nicely browned on the primary aspect, turn them over and sear the second side, three mins.
- reduce the heat to medium-low and add the glaze. Use a spatula to scrape up the browned bits on the lowest of the skillet and stir them into the glaze.

- unique word: red meat desires to be cooked to 145*, however the beef chops will preserve to cook once they've been removed from the pan, so if they are within the community of a hundred thirty* when you're taking their temperature (pick up a chop with tongs and insert a meat thermometer via the side of the chop), it's secure to take them out of the pan. Or, cut into one of the chops - I search for the middle to be barely crimson so we can prepare dinner the rest of the manner as they rest.
