It’s been almost two months since Andrew and I started eating better and making some healthy changes. We both agree that we actually enjoy our meals more now! We have been getting really creative and trying new things.
We were trying to decide what to make for dinner the other night, and Andrew said he wanted pork. I started looking through recipes and found this one. I had never made anything like this before, but it was a win for sure!
I don’t like raw onions, but I absolutely LOVE sautéed onions! I made them the other day and wondered why I don’t do it more often. For this meal, I used a little of the honey garlic sauce to sauté the onions in. It was a great way to top the pork chops!
We picked up this Whole Weat Cous Cous from Trader Joe’s the other day, so I decided to make some to go with our pork chops. I love cous cous, but had never tried the whole wheat version. I didn’t notice a difference at all, it still tasted great!
Here’s the Recipe:
4 boneless pork chops
1 large onion
1/4 cup honey
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp garlic, minced
2 tbsp oil
1. In a small bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce and garlic. Mix well.
2. Slice the onion. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet, and 1 tbsp of oil in a medium skillet.
3. Dip each pork chop into the honey garlic mixture and brown in the large skillet on high for 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Lower the heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes or until done.
4. In the meantime, sauté the onions in the medium skillet. Pour the remaining honey garlic mixture over the onions and cook until browned.
