PINEAPPLE PORK CHOPS



Pineapple Pork Chops image

Pineapple pork chops are a breeze to make and unbelievably delicious. The seasoned pork chops are first seared then cooked in a simple sauce made of pineapples, honey, soy sauce, and garlic. The pineapples become caramelized and the chops are super tender.
