Cooking Instructions

  1. Combine marinade ingredients in a shallow dish and mix well. Add pork chops into marinade, ensuring chops are evenly coated and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight.
  2. Preheat grill/BBQ to med-high and cook chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and slightly charred.
  3. To finish off, brush both sides of the pork chops with some honey and allow to caramelise slightly on the grill.
  4. Remove cooked chops and rest for a few minutes before serving with steamed rice, your favourite sides and Vietnamese Dipping Sauce – Nước Chấm (click here for recipe).
