Method
 

How to Make Double Crunch Honey Garlic Pork Chops
  1. Prepare the pork chops by trimming any excess fat for a clean, lean finish. This ensures each bite is juicy and tender.
  2. Mix in a bowl the flour, salt, ground ginger, black pepper, ground nutmeg, ground thyme, cayenne pepper, ground sage, and paprika. This flavorful blend will be your crunchy coating!
  3. Whisk together the eggs and water in a separate bowl until well combined. This will create a perfect binder for the flour coating.
  4. Dredge each pork chop in the seasoned flour mixture, then dip it in the egg mixture, and coat it again with the flour mixture for that coveted double crunch.
  5. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. This will prepare your cooking surface for that unbeatable golden crust.
  6. Cook the pork chops in the hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Look for them to be nicely browned and reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
  7. Sauté the minced garlic in a separate pan over medium heat. This brings out its rich aroma, about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not burned.
  8. Add honey, soy sauce, and ground black pepper to the sautéed garlic, then simmer the mixture until it thickens slightly, about 4-5 minutes. You'll know it's ready when it's glossy and aromatic!
  9. Serve the pork chops drizzled with the honey garlic sauce. This delightful topping will elevate your dish to new heights!
