How to Make Bourbon Chops

  1. Season 4 (1-inch thick) boneless pork chops generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup bourbon, 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Pour the bourbon sauce over the browned pork chops in the skillet.
  6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  7. Serve the Bourbon Pork Chops immediately over rice or noodles, spooning extra sauce over the top.
