What You Need for Brown Sugar Pork Chops

You do not need any special cooking tools for this recipe. Just bake the pork chops in the oven for 10 minutes and that is all! You can even turn the marinade into a sauce on the stovetop. Yup! You can do that!

The ingredients are simple and you probably have them all in your house already!

  • Pork chops
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • Soy sauce
  • Teriyaki sauce
  • Honey
  • Olive oil
  • Garlic
  • Salt and pepper
  • Brown sugar replacement
Suggestions and Substitutions

Pork chops for BOGO at Publix so I had to pick some up! I got 4 pounds of them for like $7. That was amazing. However, this marinade/recipe tastes really great with chicken or salmon if you are looking for something lighter.

I use a tablespoon or two of each ingredient, we will go over that later. I think this recipe tastes amazing as it is, and all the ingredients are required. However, if you do not have an ingredient or do not like an ingredient, do not worry.

If you do not like Worcestershire, you can skip that if you wish. I think it adds a nice flavor profile though. If you do not have soy or teriyaki, you can substitute one for the other. Lastly, you can skip the olive oil if you do not want to much oil, or just use less.

I make the marinade into a sauce and I add a little bit of brown sugar replacement (this stuff) because I like things sweet. You do not have to add that if you do not want to. Another suggestion is to add crushed red pepper if you like things spicy!

But, come on, look at these brown sugar garlic pork chops. This recipe is perfection and you need to try it!

How to Make Honey Brown Sugar Garlic Pork Chops

Start by marinading the pork. Place all marinade ingredients (not the salt, pepper or brown sugar) and the pork chops in a baggie. Mix it all around and seal the baggie very tight. I like to place the baggie in a Tupperware container just to make sure it does not leak. Place that in the fridge for at least an hour or up to all day.

However, if you forget or do not have time to marinade, it will be okay. We can turn the marinade into a sauce and they will still be a very flavorful brown sugar garlic pork chops.

Once ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil and grease with cooking spray.

Place pork chops on the baking tray, in a single layer. Shake off any excess marinade but do not rub it off. DO NOT throw the marinade away. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, flipping halfway, or until fully cooked. I like to use a meat thermometer to know exactly when the pork is done.

While the pork is cooking, heat a small pan over medium/high heat. Once heated, pour in the marinade and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add in the brown sugar, if you want to use that. Stir together until the brown sugar is dissolved. Stir and scrape up the bottom every minute until the sauce is thickened. It will be done when the pork chops are done.

Once the pork chops are done, cover them in some of the thickened sauce and enjoy your easy recipe for baked brown sugar garlic pork chops!

Pairings

Now that you have your brown sugar garlic pork chops, what will you pair it with? I highly recommend my candied carrot chips, as it plays into the brown sugar of the sauce (same with my crunchy crack broccoli) and my instant pot rice. There is tons of extra sauce leftover that is perfect for some rice.

To make it a seamless dinner, begin with the carrot chips, as those take the longest. As those are finishing up, begin on the pork chops. Once you pop those pork chops in the oven, start the rice. Everything will be ready at once! Easy and delicious pork chops with some easy and delicious sides!

If you have extra pork like I do, try out my honey balsamic pork chops!

WW:

If you are on WW and looking for a points value, click on this link and your points will automatically calculate. The cool thing is that if you switch up the meat for salmon or chicken, you can easily swap that out in your recipe builder.

Remember, I put the whole marinade into the recipe builder. It makes a ton of extra sauce that I use on my rice, about ½ cup of extra sauce. I used all of the marinade to make the sauce, besides what was stuck to the pork, of course.

If making the entire marinade into a sauce, you will make about ½ cup of sauce. At 4 servings, that is about ⅛ cup of sauce per serving. However, if you do not make the sauce, you can adjust the sizes in the recipe builder.
