How To Make pork chops with pineapple bbq sauce

  • Step 1
    Generously season pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Step 2
    In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil and when hot, place chops. Cook them until brown, about 2:30 to 3 minutes per side depending on the thickness.
  • Step 3
    Transfer them to a plate while continuing with the recipe.
  • Step 4
    In the same skillet, add onions and quickly sauté for 1 minute. Add red and jalapeños peppers, and cook for 1 minute.
  • Step 5
    Add pineapple and sauté for 2 minutes before adding ginger and garlic; sauté 1 minute.
  • Step 6
    Pour in pineapple juice and Kansas BBQ sauce. Stir well, bring the mixture to a gentle simmer; add brown sugar and ground cumin.
  • Step 7
    Return pork chops including any accumulated juices back to the skillet, spoon sauce over the meat, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Step 8
    Flip the chops and spoon sauce over; cover and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Step 9
    When time is up, transfer the meat onto a plate and add cornstarch mixture. Stir well until the sauce thickens, about 30 to 40 seconds. Serve immediately.
