Glazed Honey & Five Spice Pork Chops
Recipe by Louis Tikaram
Ingredients
4 Coles free-range loin pork chops, bone-in or boneless
Salt and pepper, to season
1 tsp five spice powder
2 tsp Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp unsalted butter
6 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup Coles honey
1/4 cup chicken broth
2 tbsp black Chinese vinegar
Method
Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, and five spice powder just before cooking.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Sear the pork chops on both sides until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer the chops to a plate.
Reduce the heat to medium. Melt the butter in the same pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, then add the honey, chicken broth, and black Chinese vinegar. Increase the heat to medium-high and continue to cook until the sauce reduces and thickens into a glaze.
Return the pork chops to the pan and continue to turn and flip them until they are fully coated with the glaze. Turn off the heat and allow the chops to rest in the pan for a few minutes.
Remove the pork chops from the pan, slice them, and spoon the glaze over them.
Serve the glazed pork chops with steamed Asian vegetables, rice, or noodles.
