Pork Chops San Francisco Style
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 4 (3/4 inch-thick) boneless pork chops, trimmed
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup beef broth
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
1
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
2
Sear the pork chops in hot oil, taking about 5 minutes per side; transfer them to a plate and reserve the remaining oil in the skillet.
3
Sauté the garlic in the reserved oil until it becomes fragrant, approximately 1 minute.
4
Combine beef broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Ensure the brown sugar dissolves before proceeding.
5
Return the pork chops to the skillet and pour the soy sauce mixture over them. Bring the sauce to a boil, cover the skillet, and lower the heat to low.
6
Simmer the pork chops until they become tender, taking about 30-35 minutes and flipping them halfway through.
7
Transfer the pork chops to a serving platter.
8
Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl until it becomes smooth.
9
Stir the cornstarch mixture into the pan juices and continue to simmer until it thickens, approximately 5 minutes.
10
Pour the sauce over the pork chops and serve.
