Instructions

  1. In a bowl mix together the minced shallots, garlic, and lemongrass. Add the fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, and oil. Mix to combine.
  2. Add the pork chops to the marinade. Marinate overnight or for a minimum of 2 hours.
  3. Heat oven to 375°F.
  4. To a foil lined sheet pan, add the pork chops. Bake the pork chops for 15 to 20 minutes, more if they’re very thick.
  5. Finish off the pork chops by heating a cast-iron pan with a thin layer of oil over medium-high heat. Brush off excess lemongrass/garlic/shallots (they’ll burn!) the pork chops and sear them for 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  6. Let them rest for 3 to 5 minutes before serving so the moisture can redistribute throughout the pork chops. Serve with rice, cucumbers, pickled carrots, and scallion oil.
