Ingredients:
- boneless pork chops, about 6 oz. each
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 tbsp. honey
- 1 tbsp. gluten free soy sauce (tamari)
- ½ tbsp. gluten free Worcestershire sauce (I like Lea and Perrins®)
- Gluten free seasoning or seasoned salt, to taste
- cooking spray
- fresh chives, for garnish

Preparation:
Choose chops that are all about the same size, so that they finish cooking at the same time. Whisk together the olive oil, honey, soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a baking dish large enough to hold your pork chops in a single layer.

Add the pork chops and marinate for 30-45 minutes at room temperature, turning every 10 minutes.

I cooked the chops in a large non-stick grill pan, you want them spaced out in the pan, not touching. Coat the pan with cooking spray and heat over medium low. Add the pork chops, sprinkle with seasoning, then cover and cook 4 minutes. Keep the cover on, and don’t move the chops around in the pan.

Turn the pork chops over, drizzle any remaining marinade over the top and sprinkle more seasoning. Cover and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chops and how you like them done. According to food safety guidelines, pork should be cooked to a minimum of 145° and for me this is perfect. Check with a thermometer to be sure.

Now turn them once more to coat both sides in the honey glaze and cook 30 more seconds.

Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with chives. I served with roasted cauliflower and sweet potato.

Doesn’t that look good? Now that you know how easy it is, surprise your family with a delicious pork chop dinner this week. Make it once and it will become an instant favorite!
Notes ♪♫ The secret to tender juicy pork chops is to not overcook them. Use a skillet with a cover, to keep the moisture in. For best results, cook on medium low heat, use a timer, and check with a thermometer.
