Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a food processor, combine 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce, 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1/4 cup orange juice, and 1 teaspoon orange zest. Process for 15 seconds until well combined.
  2. Step 2: Place 4 bone-in pork chops in a large resealable bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  3. Step 3: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove pork chops from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Sear pork chops for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Step 4: Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until the glaze thickens and coats the pork chops.
  5. Step 5: Transfer pork chops to plates and spoon glaze over the top. Garnish with 2 sliced green onions and serve immediately.
