Ingredients
- 2 pounds thick-cut pork chops about 4 boneless chops or 3 bone-in
- ½ cup honey
- ¼ cup Cholula hot sauce
- 5-6 cloves garlic minced
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Pat the pork chops dry on both sides and generously sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Stovetop Method: Set a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- Set out a mixing bowl, or measuring picture. Combine the honey, Cholula hot sauce, and minced garlic. Mix well.
- Once the skillet is hot, place the pork chops in the skillet. Sear the pork chops for 3 minutes per side. Then flip the pork chops again and pour the glaze over the top. Lower the skillet to medium heat, and continue to cook for 1 to 2 additional minutes per side, until the pork chops are cooked through and the glaze is nice and thick.

Notes
- Grill Method: You can also grill these honey pork chops! If grilling, preheat the grill to medium heat, 350-400 degrees F. Grill the pork chops for 2 minutes per side. Then brush glaze over the pork chops and continue cooking for an additional 1 minute per side, brushing again, after you flip the pork chops.
- I personally like the pan-seared method because the minced garlic has longer to cook in the pan, getting nice and soft and sweet.
- Leftover pork chops will keep well for up to 3-4 days in an airtight container in the fridge. This recipe is great to meal prep for weekly lunches!
