Ingredients

2 tablespoon butter (unsalted)

1 tablespoon olive oil

5 pork chops (boneless)

½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)

½ teaspoon pepper (or to taste)

4 cloves garlic (minced)

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

¼ cup honey

2 tablespoon soy sauce (low sodium)

Directions

Brown the pork: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Add the pork chops to the skillet and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes until the pork turns golden brown. Flip and season with more salt and pepper, and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes or until the pork is fully cooked through. Transfer the pork to a plate.

Form the sauce: Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter and when the butter has melted, stir in the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook the garlic for 30 seconds or until aromatic then stir in the honey and soy sauce. Cook for about 1 minute or until the sauce thickens a bit. Remove from heat.

Finish the dish: Add the pork chops back to the skillet, then flip each piece to fully coat them in the sauce. Garnish with parsley and serve.
