These Honey Garlic Pork Chops taste even better than they look. Today's recipe combines a couple of past ideas that have appeared on Rock Recipes; one another pork chop recipe and one a chicken wing recipe.

One of my favourite comfort food meals is Chicken Fried Pork Chops served with mashed potatoes and gravy. One of my favourite chicken wing recipes is the very popular Crispy Honey Garlic Wings.

Here, both the crispiness of chicken wings and flavourful sauce get combined to produce one of the best pork chop recipes I have ever tried. The kids absolutely loved it too.

2018 update.

After 7 years and millions of views online, this recipe is still going strong. Our family continues to enjoy this meal on a regular basis.

As do countless other folks who love this recipe and have made it part of their regular dinner rotation.

Double Crunch Honey Garlic Pork Chops

Yield: 4 servings
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Double Crunch Honey Garlic Pork Chops - juicy on the inside but super crunchy on the outside, these double dipped pork chops get dipped in an easy, flavorful Honey Garlic Sauce.

Ingredients

  • 6 center loin pork chops, well trimmed
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ tablespoon ground ginger
  • 2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground thyme
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon ground sage
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 tablespoon water

For the Honey Garlic Sauce

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cloves – 4 minced garlic
  • 1 cup honey
  • ¼ cup soy sauce (Low sodium version is best)
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Sift together the flour, salt, black pepper, ground ginger, nutmeg, thyme, sage paprika and cayenne pepper. NOTE: This flour and spice dredge mix is sufficient for two batches of this pork chop recipe. You can store the leftover mix in a Ziploc bag in the freezer for the next time you make this recipe (or the chicken version)...and there will be a next time.
  2. Make an egg wash by whisking together the eggs and water.
  3. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, then dip the meat in the flour and spice mixture. Dip the chop into the eggwash and then a final time into the flour and spice mix, pressing the mix into the meat to get good contact.
  4. Heat a skillet on the stove with about a half inch of canola oil covering the bottom. You will want to carefully regulate the temperature here so that the chops does not brown too quickly. T I find just below medium heat works well. I use a burner setting of about 4 to 4 ½ out of 10 on the dial and fry them gently for about 4 or 5 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Drain on a wire rack for a couple of minutes before dipping the cooked pork chops into the Honey Garlic Sauce. Serve with noodles or rice.

To make the Honey Garlic Sauce:

  1. In a medium saucepan add the 2 tablespoon olive oil and minced garlic. Cook over medium heat to soften the garlic but do not let it brown.
  2. Add the honey, soy sauce and black pepper.
  3. Simmer together for 5-10 minutes, remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes. Watch this carefully as it simmers because it can foam up over the pot very easily.

  1. I made this recipe last night and it was SOOOOOOO Good!!!! I want to make it again tonight!! Its definitely going in my dinner rotation!

    1. It gets rave reviews every time! So glad you enjoyed it. Have to make it for my son when he comes home from his French summer school this week. It's his favorite.

  2. Made this tonight and my pickiest eater, my son Kaiden who is 6, loved it!
    I'm good at over cooking pork, however, your tips worked and it turned out juicy on the inside and crunchy on the out! Thank you for this recipe!

    1. Glad your family enjoyed it! We get a lot of picky eaters who seem to love this recipe when they try it. It sure is popular. Be sure to try it with chicken breasts too.

  3. This was DELICIOUS! Five stars for sure, this will be in the dinner rotation! We just recently started cooking with pork more so I was a little intimidated to try frying, but it turned out so well and was much easier than I thought! Thank you for sharing!

  4. These were absolutely fabulous! I omitted the cayenne due to my four and six year olds but it was still delicious! Tasted restaurant quality which is hard to achieve for me. Fantastic recipe!

    1. So glad you liked them Mike. My son whines for these on a regular basis. I swear the kid could love on this and chicken parm for the rest of hos life. All the best, Barry.

  7. Just made these for dinner tonight and LOVED them. Thank you so much for the recipe. Also, thank you for adding in that the honey mixture may foam over the pot! Disaster averted.

    1. It's those kind of tips that I look for in a recipe and like to include them where possible.

  8. This was the best pork chop recipe I have ever made! I don't usually like or eat pork because I can't find a great recipe but this was fantastic! I am definitely putting this on the list of recipes to make for my fiance!

  9. 2 out of 3 of my kiddos loved this recipe and so did my husband who rarely rates pork. I loved the crunchy texture of the coating. It reminded me of Chinese food. Would definitely do this recipe again!

  10. Would it be possible to substitute corn starch in place of the flour? My sister is gluten-intolerant.

  11. I made these tonight for dinner and used eight thin, boneless chops. Perfect! Everyone loved them and I will be doing the recipe later this week with chicken. Even the finicky 17-year-old went back for seconds. The seasoning blend on the pork was so savory and delicious and the sauce was just an added bonus. My son wants to eat the sauce on everything. Thank you for sharing.

  12. This was amazing. Usually I make changes to recipes to suit our tastes, but didn't change anything with this one. I made it with homemade fried rice and oven roasted broccoli, which were perfect compliments. I will definitely be making this again exactly as is.

  14. I would love to try this, is there any other kind of oil I can use, I dont have canola on hand?

  15. OH MY GOODNESS.... This was outstanding... Thank you so much for sharing....
