Delicious Brown Sugar Pork Chops – Page 2

1.Whisk the Glaze:3 min.

In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp brown sugar, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, and 2 tsp minced garlic until the sugar crystals are mostly dissolved.

2.Prep and Marinate (Optional):15-30 min.

Pat the 4 bone-in pork chops completely dry with paper towels (removing surface moisture ensures proper searing). Coat the chops evenly with the glaze mixture. Optionally marinate in the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes.

3.Sear First Side for Caramelization:4-5 min.

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until glistening. Place the pork chops into the pan without crowding. Sear undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes until a deep golden-brown, caramelized crust forms.

4.Flip and Baste:4-5 min.

Flip the chops and pour any remaining glaze from the bowl over the top. Cook for another 4 to 5 minutes, turning heat down to medium-low if the glaze darkens too quickly.

5.Check Internal Temperature:1 min.

Insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part of the chops until it reaches 145°F (63°C).

6.Rest and Serve:5 min.

Transfer chops to a warm plate and let them rest for 5 minutes. Spoon warm pan juices over the top right before serving.

💡 Recipe Success Tips

Prevent Overcrowding: Cook in two separate batches if your skillet isn’t large enough to fit all 4 chops with space between them. Overcrowding traps steam, preventing a crisp glaze from forming.
Heat Management: Keep a close eye on the pan bottom during the second half of cooking; if the sugar turns dark brown too rapidly, drop the heat to medium-low or add 1 tablespoon of water to loosen the glaze into a pan sauce.
