Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk 3 tbsp honey, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp grated fresh ginger. Set aside.
Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season 4 bone-in pork chops with 1/4 tsp black pepper and sear for 4-5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (internal temp 145°F). Remove chops and set aside.
Step 3: Reduce heat to medium; add the honey-soy mixture to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until it thickens into a glaze.
Step 4: Return pork chops to the skillet, turning to coat with the glaze for 1 minute.
Step 5: Meanwhile, in another skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp sesame oil over medium heat. Add 1 lb trimmed green beans and sauté for 5-6 minutes until crisp-tender.
Step 6: Toss green beans with 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and season with 1/4 tsp black pepper. Serve pork chops topped with glaze alongside the sesame green beans.
