Pork Chops with Soy-Honey Glaze and Grilled Sweet Onions Recipe

Bobby Flay knows that pork takes well to a little sweetness, and this recipe for grilled pork chops with soy-honey glaze and grilled sweet onions illustrates that point perfectly . The saltiness of the soy sauce is balanced perfectly by the sweetness of the Vidalia onions and the honey. If you want to add a touch more heat to this dish, add another pinch of hot red pepper flakes.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • pinch of hot red pepper flakes
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 8 (4- to 6-ounce) center-cut boneless pork chops, cut 1/2 inch thick
  • Canola oil
  • Salt
  • 2 large Vidalia onions, sliced 1/2 inch thick

Directions

  1. 1.

    Combine the honey, soy and pepper flakes in a small bowl and season to taste with pepper.

  2. 2.

    Heat your grill to high.

  3. 3.

    Brush the chops on both sides with oil and season with salt and pepper. Set aside a few tablespoons of glaze for brushing the cooked chops.

  4. 4.

    Grill the pork chops until lightly crusty, 4 to 5 minutes.

  5. 5.

    Turn the chops over, reduce the heat to medium or move to a cooler part of the grill, and grill, brushing often with glaze, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes.

  6. 6.

    Remove the chops to a platter and brush with the reserved glaze.

  7. 7.

    Brush the onion slices with oil and season with salt and pepper.

  8. 8.

    Grill the slices until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve the chops with the onions on the side.
