Honey Grilled Pork Chops

"These tasty chops have a bit of an Oriental flair! Can easily be done under the broiler if you don't wish to grill outdoors, or if it suddenly rains! Prep time does not include marinating time."

  • Combine soy sauce, ginger and garlic in a small bowl; pour half of this in a shallow pan and add the chops.
  • Pour remaining sauce/marinade over the chops, then refrigerate for up to 8 hours, turning occasionally.
  • Prepare grill; spray grill rack with non-stick spray before heating.
  • Combine sugar, honey and sesame oil in a small saucepan; cook on low until sugar dissolves then remove from heat.

  • Turn chops and do opposite side; then move away from direct heat.

  1. this is a great recipe . I used fresh ginger. Easy to prepare and will please the fussiest person in your house.
     
  2. Soooooo good! I made this and my husband and I loved it. My son, who doesn't usually like meat said it was good and ate it before he ate anything else. I took it to work for leftovers and people kept stopping in my office to find out what smelled so great. This is a definite keeper! :) One thing I did differently was after I removed the meat from the marinade I put the leftover marinade in a small pan, added a couple tablespoons of sesame oil and reduced it to make a sauce to drizzle or dip (which was also good on the zucchini we had with it)
     
  3. This made the best and the most tender pork chops I've ever tasted! I added fresh minced ginger to both the marinade and the glaze for added flavor. For my daughter's 40th birthday (with a houseful for dinner) I butterflied a boneless pork loin roast and marinated it for three days and it was wonderful! This is a keeper!
     
  4. Delicious
     
  5. These turned out amazing! I used boneless chops as opposed to bone-in. I also used low-sodium soy sauce instead of regular because that was all I had; and I added a dash of chili powder to the glaze just to give it a little kick. My husband was impressed and can't wait for me to make these again. He had two helpings! I served the chops with green beans and macaroni & cheese. Very very good!
