Instructions
Cooking Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature is essential for achieving that delicious caramelization on your pork chops.
- Whisk together soy sauce, vegetable oil, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar, and ketchup in a medium bowl to create a luscious sauce. Ensure the sugar is well dissolved for maximum flavor.
- Place pork chops in a baking dish and pour half of the sauce over them; cover the dish with foil.
- Bake covered for 30 minutes.
- Drain excess liquid from the baking dish to avoid boiling the meat in its juices.
- Pour the remaining sauce over the pork chops and bake uncovered for an additional 30 minutes.
- Optional: Turn the pork chops halfway through the last baking period for even browning and a delightful texture.
- Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh pop of color, if desired.
