Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 0.5 cup Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Gochujang (Korean chili paste)
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, gochujang, sesame oil, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and rice vinegar to create the marinade.
Step 2
Place the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, then pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
Step 3
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Remove the pork chops from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting during grilling.
Step 5
Grill the pork chops for 5-6 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Baste the chops occasionally with the reserved marinade to enhance the flavor.
Step 6
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the grill and allow them to rest for 3-5 minutes to retain their juices.
Step 7
Garnish the grilled pork chops with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Step 8
Serve hot with steamed rice and your choice of vegetables for a complete meal.
