How to Make Sweet and Spicy Hawaiian Pork Chops
Step 1: Preheat
The first step to making these tasty pork chops is preheating the oven to 400 degrees. This is the standard temperature for most meat dishes. Also, make sure to grease the baking pan with nonstick cooking spray to prevent the pork chops from sticking.
Step 2: Place
Place the pork chops in the pan. This recipe requires four pork chops, but you can adjust the quantity according to the number of servings you need. Evenly space to ensure even cooking.
Step 3: Mix
In a medium bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients such as the pineapple chunks and juice, honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and cornstarch. Stir them all together until all ingredients are well blended. The sweet and spicy combination of flavors from pineapple and Sriracha sauce will make your taste buds sing.
Step 4: Pour
Once you have finished mixing the ingredients for the sauce, pour it over the pork chops evenly. Make sure that each pork chop is covered with the sauce to give it a delectable taste.
Step 5: Bake
Place the covered baking pan into the oven and bake for 20 minutes. After the 20-minute mark, you can remove the cover and continue baking the pork chops for another five minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit, and the sauce has thickened.
Thickening the sauce gives it a rich texture and makes it more flavorful.
Step 6: Stir
Before serving the sticky pineapple pork chops, make sure that you stir the sauce thoroughly. This will ensure that the flavor is distributed evenly and all the ingredients are well mixed.
Serve alongside savory side dishes like creamy mashed potatoes or macaroni salad.
