Korean Pork Chops

Lahna Son-Cundy

This is a great weeknight supper dish, devised by my mother to evoke a similar Korean dish without it taking quite so long to cook. We serve it often in our busy household! Enjoy with cucumber salad on the side.

Ingredients

SERVINGS: 4 Serving(s)
  • ½ cup gochujang
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • ½ cup water
  • 4 bone-in pork chops

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, mix gochujang with garlic powder, sesame oil and soy sauce using the backside of a spoon. Add water, stirring to create a sauce from the paste. Add pork chops, one at a time, then flip to ensure each chop is coated on both sides. Place pork chops in a heavy oven-safe pan and spoon remaining sauce on top. Cook for 25 minutes, or until sauce begins to char. Broil chops for approximately 5 minutes to lightly brown on top but be careful not to burn.
