Delicious Maple Glazed Pork Chops Recipe for Dinner

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 4 pieces pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
  • 1 cup maple syrup (pure maple syrup for best flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (adds depth of flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or minced garlic)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking the chops)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare the marinade

    In a bowl, mix together maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper.

    Adjust the sweetness by adding more maple syrup if desired.
  2. Marinate the pork chops

    Place the pork chops in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

    For best flavor, marinate overnight.
  3. Heat the pan

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.

    Ensure the oil is shimmering for a good sear.
  4. Cook the pork chops

    Remove the chops from the marinade and place them in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 145°F.

    Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
  5. Glaze the chops

    Pour the remaining marinade over the pork chops in the last minute of cooking to create a glaze.

    Baste the chops with the glaze for extra flavor.
  6. Rest and serve

    Remove chops from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

    Serve with your favorite side dishes.
