  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 beef chops (about 1 inch thick)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add beef chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.
  3. Reduce heat to medium and add garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, and black pepper to the skillet.
  4. Simmer for 8-10 minutes, turning the chops occasionally, until sauce thickens and beef is cooked through.
