A delightful recipe for tender pork chops glazed with a savory soy-based sauce, perfect for a family dinner.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking.
Use a neutral oil or cooking spray for greasing.
Season the pork chops with black pepper on both sides and place them in the baking dish.
Pat the pork chops dry before seasoning for better adhesion.
In a mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, cornstarch, ground ginger, ketchup, chili sauce, minced garlic, and soy sauce.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the cornstarch is fully dissolved.
Pour the sauce mixture over the pork chops, ensuring they are well coated.
Use a spoon to evenly distribute the sauce over the meat.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 1.5 hours, or until the pork chops are tender.
Check the pork chops halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Serve the pork chops with cooked rice and enjoy your meal.
Garnish with chopped green onions for added flavor and color.
