Asian Style Pork Chops

I had some thick cut pork chops to use up so I went in search of a recipe online. I found this one at Life's Ambrosia that sounded simple and delicious. I adapted it just a bit by using fresh ginger, using a bit more soy sauce, using less sriracha (to make them kid friendly), and by cooking the meat in a grill pan instead of the oven. They turned out really tender, juicy, and flavorful. My whole family enjoyed these chops and they paired nicely with the homemade pot stickers (recipe to come) I made.

Heat the grill pan over medium high heat until hot. Coat the pan with cooking spray then add the pork chops. Cook for 5-6 minutes then flip the pork; continue cooking for 5-6 minutes or until the pork is cooked through. Let the meat rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy.
