• Broil the tenderloins 5" from heat for 5 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer registers 160 degrees (if using an electric oven, the door should be left partially open during cooking).

HONEY-GARLIC PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Season pork chops with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Brown pork chops 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
• Whisk honey, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and butter together in a bowl and pour over the pork chops in the baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let pork chops sit in the baking dish 5 minutes more to soak up juices.

HONEYBUTTER PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
