Ingredients

• 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 pieces Garlic cloves (minced)
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, ground black pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes (if using). Whisk together until well blended.

Step 2

Place the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork chops, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for more 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, letting any excess marinade drip off. Reserve the remaining marinade for basting.

Step 5

Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for juicy meat. Avoid overcooking to keep the chops tender.

Step 6

Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 7

Garnish the pork chops with chopped parsley and serve them warm with your favorite side dishes, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
