For even cooking, ensure pork chops are of uniform thickness. Feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the honey-garlic sauce for a touch of heat. Serve with a side of steamed rice or roasted vegetables to complete the meal. For best results, use high-quality honey for a richer flavor. Be very careful when broiling, as the high heat can quickly burn the honey.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPrepare for Broiling: Position an oven rack approximately 6 inches from the broiler and preheat the broiler to high.
02
StepSeason the Pork: Generously season both sides of the pork chops with sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and garlic powder. (2 minutes)
03
StepSear the Pork: Heat olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Sear the pork chops until deeply golden brown and cooked nearly through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate to rest. (10 minutes)
04
StepCreate the Honey-Garlic Glaze: Reduce the heat to medium. Add butter to the skillet, allowing it to melt into the pan drippings. Stir in the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the honey, water, and rice vinegar. Increase the heat to medium-high, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes. (5 minutes)
05
StepGlaze and Broil: Return the pork chops to the skillet and generously baste with the honey-garlic sauce. Transfer the skillet under the preheated broiler and broil until the edges of the pork chops are slightly caramelized and charred, about 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning. (3 minutes)
06
StepRest and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. Spoon the remaining honey-garlic sauce over the chops. (5 minutes)
