Pork Loin Chop Easy

Ingredients:
– 4 pork loin chops
– 1/4 cup soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:
1. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. This marinade will infuse the pork loin chops with a wonderful balance of sweet, savory, and aromatic flavors.

2. Place the pork loin chops in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chops, making sure they are evenly coated. Cover the dish (or seal the bag) and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and penetrate the meat. For best results, marinate the pork chops for up to 4 hours.

3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, remove the pork loin chops from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off, and place them in the skillet. Reserve the marinade for later use.

4. Sear the pork loin chops for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they develop a golden-brown crust. This initial searing helps lock in the juices and flavor, creating a delicious caramelized exterior.

5. Lower the heat to medium and pour the remaining marinade into the skillet. Allow the chops to simmer in the marinade, basting them occasionally, for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium doneness.

6. Once the pork loin chops are cooked to your desired level of doneness, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a juicy and tender bite.

7. Before serving, garnish the cooked pork loin chops with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and added freshness. You can also drizzle any remaining pan juices over the chops for extra flavor.
