These pork chops hit every note you want from a weeknight dinner — savory, a little sweet, and deeply aromatic from fresh ginger and garlic. The marinade leans on coconut aminos instead of conventional soy sauce, which keeps the ingredient list clean and free from the synthetic additives and preservatives that can sneak into bottled condiments. Apple cider vinegar and honey round out the glaze with a bright, balanced tang that caramelizes beautifully once it hits the heat. The technique here is smart: a hard sear in coconut oil builds that golden crust, then the oven finishes the job gently so the chops stay juicy all the way through. A quick stovetop reduction of the reserved marinade turns into a glossy, spoonable glaze that makes the whole plate look like it came from a restaurant. Fresh scallions and cilantro on top add color and a little lift without complicating anything. Every ingredient is straightforward and whole-food, so you know exactly what you're putting on the table.

In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, fresh ginger, garlic, honey, turmeric, and ground ginger until combined. Reserve 3 tablespoons of this mixture in a small saucepan and set aside for the glaze. Pour the remaining marinade into a large zip-top bag or shallow dish.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with the salt. Add the chops to the marinade, seal or cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
