Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory San Francisco Pork Chops.
Step 1
To start your delicious pork chop dish, grab a skillet and warm up a tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, gently place the pork chops in the skillet and let them sizzle away for about five minutes on each side until they develop a beautiful golden-brown crust.
Step 3
When they’re perfectly browned, carefully remove the chops from the skillet and set them aside, but don’t toss that flavorful oil just yet! Next, in the same skillet, add minced garlic to the drippings left behind.
Step 4
Sauté the garlic for about a minute, just until it becomes fragrant and fills your kitchen with a mouthwatering aroma.
Step 5
Now, let’s create a savory sauce! In a bowl, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, two teaspoons of vegetable oil, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
Step 6
Keep whisking until the brown sugar dissolves completely, creating a rich and flavorful mixture.
Step 7
Return the pork chops to the skillet and pour that delicious soy sauce mixture over them.
Step 8
Bring the sauce to a gentle boil, then cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low.
Step 9
Allow the chops to simmer for 30 to 35 minutes, turning them once halfway through to ensure they soak up all that flavor and become tender.
Step 10
Once the pork chops are cooked to perfection, transfer them to a serving platter, and let’s finish off that sauce! In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a bit of water until smooth, then stir this mixture into the pan juices.
Step 11
Let it simmer for about five minutes, watching as it thickens into a luscious sauce.
Step 12
Finally, pour the thickened sauce generously over the pork chops before serving.
Step 13
Your meal is now ready to impress! Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and the tender, juicy pork chops that are sure to become a family favorite.
Step 14
Happy cooking!.
