Pork Chops with vinegar and honey



My pork chops have never been very good.  I saw this recipe online and decided to try a version of it.  The key is to use some vinegar and honey in the marinade and saute them in a pan with a bit of oil for approximately 4 minutes per side.  They taste like steaks!

6-8 bone in pork chops (3/4" thick approx)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
4 tbs canola oil for pan frying, top up as necessary
1/2 can tomato paste
1 onion chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
2 tbs white vinegar ( apple cider vinegar is fine too)
2 tbs honey or maple syrup
1/2 tsp thyme or other herb

Marinate the chops with all the ingredients, overnight  is good but not necessary.  Heat the oil and saute the chops approximately 4 minutes per side.

    1. You could omit the vinegar and honey for the beef steaks
