Sweet And Spicy Chili Pork Chops - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
16 ounces boneless center cut pork chops
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons chili paste with garlic (sambal oelek)
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1/4 cup diagonally sliced green onion
cooking spray
Preparation
-
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add pork, cooking 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove pan from heat and let pork stand for 30 seconds.
While pork cooks, combine brown sugar, soy sauce, chile paste, hoisin and rice vinegar in a small bowl.
Pour sauce over the pork, scraping the pan to loosen the fond. Turn the pork over to coat. (The recipe does not call for this, but I often will return over low heat just to make sure the sauce is heated through, if there is not enough residual heat in the skillet).
Serve garnished with the green onion slices.
I had a couple of thick boneless chops sitting around, so I cut them into thin, flat slices and cooked as above; then doubled the sauce ingredients, tossed it all together and served with saffron rice. A nice variation.
