Ingredients

• 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
• 0.33 cup honey
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
• 2 pieces garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 stalks green onions
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, lime juice, and red chili flakes until well combined. This will serve as the glaze and marinade.

Step 2

Place the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour half of the honey ginger marinade over the pork chops, reserving the other half for basting later. Ensure the pork chops are evenly coated, seal the bag or cover the dish, and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.

Step 3

Preheat your barbecue grill to medium-high heat. Lightly grease the grill grates with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Remove the pork chops from the marinade and discard the used marinade. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Place the pork chops on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on their thickness, until they are golden brown and slightly charred.

Step 6

During the last few minutes of cooking, brush the reserved honey ginger glaze generously onto each side of the pork chops. Be careful to avoid burning the glaze.

Step 7

Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; the internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C). Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 8

Garnish the pork chops with thinly sliced green onions before serving. Serve hot with your choice of side dishes, such as grilled vegetables or a simple salad.
