While glancing through some food magazines I found a recipe for a honey and garlic glaze that went with pork. It sounded interesting.
Now, my ability to follow a recipe is often in question. For this experiment I used boneless pork chops, because that's what I buy - boneless. When I cook chops I always prefer to use thick-cut or butterflied cuts so they don't dry out so easily. With that being said, I usually bake pork chops instead of frying them for that same reason, however this was the exception.
The glaze's combination of flavors balanced out very well. A little bit of honey takes the tang out of the lemon juice and the soy sauce added some salt to round out the dish. This was a very nice topping that paired well with pork. Return the chops to skillet for a short, low simmer with a lid to add some moisture. This was well worth the adventure and I'll try it again.
