These pork chops are packed with a delicious blend of flavours. My family’s new go-to to enjoy over mashed potatoes and their favourite vegetables.
INGREDIENTS

3 tbsp garlic minced
2 tbsp vegetable oil
4 tbsp butter
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
3 tbsp brown sugar

fresh parsley chopped
HOW TO MAKE GARLIC BROWN SUGAR PORK CHOPS
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 400 degrees.
Step 2: With salt and pepper, season the pork chops.
Step 3: In an oven-safe skillet or cast-iron, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the pork chops and sear for about 3 minutes per side. Remove the cooked pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.
Step 4: Adjust the heat to low and in the same skillet, add the butter, garlic, brown sugar, red pepper. Stir and simmer for about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the pork chops back and spoon the sauce over.
Step 5: In the preheated oven, transfer the skillet and bake the pork chops for about 8 to 10 minutes until the internal temperature reads 145 degrees F.
Step 6: Take the pork chops out of the oven and allow them to rest for at least 5 minutes.
Step 7: Before serving, garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Enjoy!
NOTES:
You can transfer everything to a baking dish if you don’t have an oven-safe pan.
Cut back a minute or two on the cooking time if using thinner pork chops.
