Baked Honey Garlic Pork Chops

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless pork loin chops 1 inch thick, about 1 1/2 lbs total
  • 1 tsp neutral oil
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 3 garlic cloves finely grated
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1/2 tsp cornstarch

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 400°F; lightly oil a shallow baking dish. Pat chops dry; season with salt and pepper. Arrange in one layer.
  2. Bake 12 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk honey, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, water, and cornstarch in a small saucepan; simmer 1 to 2 minutes until lightly thickened.
  3. Brush half the glaze over chops; bake 5 minutes. Brush with remaining glaze; return to oven.
  4. Bake 3 to 8 minutes more until each chop reaches at least 145°F in its thickest part. Remove ready chops individually to avoid overcooking.
  5. Rest at least 3 minutes; spoon a little hot baking-dish sauce over pork to serve.
