Pineapple Teriyaki Pork Chops Recipe
Pineapple teriyaki pork chops are incredibly delicious, simple to make, and loaded with flavor. Marinate pork chops in a sweet and salty blend of pineapple juice and teriyaki sauce, then baked in the oven to tender perfection.
Ingredients
- 4 ounce pork chops
- ½ cup pineapple juice
- ¼ cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup diced pineapple
- 1 teaspoon cilantro optional for garnish
Instructions
- Place the pork chops in a large resealable bag. Set aside.
- Mix a marinade of pineapple juice, teriyaki sauce, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl. Pour over the pork chops, seal well, and toss to coat evenly. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Remove the pork chops from the marinade and arrange them in an 8x8-inch baking dish.
- In a small saucepan, bring the used marinade to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes and reduce slightly. Meanwhile, top the pork chops with diced pineapple.
- Pour the marinade over the pork chops and pineapple.
- Bake the pork chops in the oven for 25 minutes or until cooked through with an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) for a medium-rare finish. Serve the pork chops hot with pineapple and sauce poured over the top.
