ASIAN PORK CHOP WITH GINGER SOY SAUCE

Steps:

• Prick the pork chops with a fork so the meat will absorb the marinade. Put the pork chops and all the ingredients for the marinade in a resealable plastic bag. Squeeze out the air before sealing the bag. Keep in the fridge for 30 minutes (I don't recommend more than that as it gets too salty).
• You can grill on a BBQ grill, or you can pan-fry. For pan-frying, heat oil in a large pan on medium-high heat. When it's hot, add the pork chops to the pan, removing the marinade from the pork chop as the moisture will end up "steaming" the meat. Keep the marinade in the plastic bag as we'll use it later. Cook the pork chops until the bottom side is nicely brown.
• Once the meat is brown, flip it and lower the heat to medium-low. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 3 minutes. You want to make sure the pork is cooked through, but overcooked pork is very tough.
• Add the marinade into the pan and increase the heat to medium. Bring it to simmer and scoop the sauce with a spoon over the meat. Transfer the meat out on serving plates and you can continue to reduce the sauce until thicken.
• Serve the pork chop with steamed rice and sauteed vegetables (I sauteed spinatch with butter and season with salt and pepper). Enjoy!
• You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
