Slow Cooker 3-Ingredient Honey Garlic Pork Chops
Servings: 4
Ingredients
4 pork chops, bone-in or boneless
Directions
Place the pork chops in the bottom of your slow cooker.
In a small bowl, mix together the honey and minced garlic.
Pour the honey garlic mixture over the pork chops, ensuring they are well coated.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.
Serve the pork chops with the sauce spooned over the top.
Variations & Tips
For a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the honey garlic mixture. You can also substitute chicken breasts or thighs for the pork chops if you prefer.
If you like a thicker sauce, remove the pork chops once cooked and let the sauce simmer on high in the slow cooker with the lid off for about 15 minutes. For an added layer of flavor, try searing the pork chops in a hot skillet before placing them in the slow cooker.
