Recipe View Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving, allowing the juices to redistribute for maximum tenderness.

For an even richer flavor, consider browning the pork chops in a skillet before baking. This adds a delicious caramelized crust.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preference. If you prefer a less sweet sauce, start with 1/4 cup and add more to taste.
The sauce is also fantastic with chicken thighs or drumsticks. Simply adjust the cooking time accordingly.
Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite roasted vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal.
