Ingredients
MARINADE
- 3 tablespoons BBQ sauce
- 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon pinch cayenne pepper
PORK CHOPS
- 4 pork chops or cutlets, bone in or boneless
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- 1 pinch salt to season
- 1 pinch pepper to season
Instructions
- Move oven shelf is about 8-inches/20cm from the top heat element. Preheat oven to 430°F (220°C) for standard oven, or 390°F (200°C) for fan forced/convection.
- Lightly grease a baking sheet/tray with oil. Line with foil or parchment paper, set aside.
- Combine together Bbq sauce, soy sauce, olive oil, brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire Sauce, minced garlic, salt and cayenne pepper in a bowl, Mix well, set aside.
- Rub pork chops with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. Arrange chops onto prepared baking sheet.
- Take two-thirds of the marinade to slather each chop generously all over. Reserve the rest for basting later.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven. Flip pork over and baste each chop with the reserved marinade, brushing all over to evenly coat (or spread using the back of a spoon).
- Change oven setting to broil (grill) on medium-high heat setting. Broil until edges are caramelized, about 7-10 minutes (please make sure oven shelf is about 8-inches/20cm from the top heat element).
- Remove from oven. Flip once more and baste all over with the pan juices. Return to broiler for a further 1-3 minutes until nice and golden.
- To serve, brush all pan juices back onto the pork. Season with a little extra cracked black pepper and garnish with parsley or fresh herbs of choice.

Notes
- Tips:
- Baking pork chops for the first 15 minutes, then broiling for a further 10 minutes all together creates a crispy outer layer.
