Ingredients

1 cup soy sauce
0.5 cup brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon roasted red chili paste
6 (1-inch thick) pork chops
cooking spray

Instructions

Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, cumin, and red chili paste in a large resealable bag. Mix thoroughly to dissolve the brown sugar.
Add pork chops to the marinade, seal, and marinate for 30-45 minutes.
Preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
Remove pork chops from marinade and discard the used marinade. Shake off any excess marinade. Grill pork chops until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Ensure good grill marks and an internal temperature of at least 145°F (63°C).
