Categories Steaks and Chops

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

4 boneless center cut pork chops (at least an inch thick)
1 Tbsp sesame oil
2 Tbsp olive oil
3 clove cloves garlic - sliced
4 slice slices fresh ginger - peeled
2 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
salt & pepper
FOR THE GLAZE
1 jar(s) 16 oz. jar apricot preserves
2 Tbsp terriyaki sauce
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp fresh grated ginger
2 Tbsp cloves finely minced garlic

Steps:

1. Blend all glaze ingredients together well and set aside.
2. In a large shallow fry pan, heat both oils. Add Garlic and Ginger slices until they're golden brown. Remove and discard. Salt and pepper both sides of the chops. Sear/brown them quickly in the flavored oil. Remove from pan and set aside, covered with foil.
3. Turn up the heat and deglaze the pan with the Glaze Sauce, stirring vigorously with a whisk. After about five minutes, turn down the heat and return the chops to the sauce, turning once to coat.
4. Cover and allow to cook over low heat for 15 mins or until chops are just firm to finger pressure. Remove chops and set aside to rest (cover with foil to retain heat). Bring the sauce back to the boil and keep stirring until desired thickness. Return chops to sauce just before serving and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
5. Best served over jasmati rice. (To kick the rice up a notch: throw in 2 - 3 thick slices of fresh ginger in the water - remove before serving)

Tips:

For the best flavor, use thick-cut pork chops.
Make sure to pat the pork chops dry before cooking. This will help them to brown evenly.
Season the pork chops generously with salt and pepper.
Cook the pork chops over medium heat until they are cooked through.
Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the pork chops. This will cause them to steam instead of brown.
To make the glaze, simply whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and garlic.
Once the pork chops are cooked, brush them with the glaze and cook for an additional minute or two.
Serve the pork chops immediately with steamed rice or your favorite sides.

Conclusion:

Glazed sesame pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork chops are tender and juicy, and the glaze is sweet and savory. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
