Scan: Easy and Flavourful Glazed Pork Chops



In need of an amazing weeknight main dish? These easy glazed pork chops, made with Scan’s tasty and tender Omega 3 pork, are exactly what you need! Why Scan? Scan’s flower fed pork is very easy and quick to prepare-- it’s loaded with high-quality omega 3 fats that keep the meat juicy and tender, making cooking time is less critical. Basically, with Scan’s premium pork, you’ll always bite into juicy, delicious pork every meal! No more over-cooked, dry, tough meat!

For these glazed pork chops you’ll make a basic rub out of brown sugar and spices. The brown sugar turns into a nice sweet glaze, that can really be paired with whatever herbs and spices you prefer. Here, we went for a little spice with cayenne and black pepper, then rounded the flavours out with paprika and garlic. Simply add salt and pepper to taste and you’re all set! This meat recipe is super easy and very tasty.


Ingredients
4 Scan pork chops
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cayenne
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp each salt and pepper -- or to taste.
4 Tbsp. brown sugar
Olive or Canola oil

Directions
In a bowl, combine the paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Rub the mixed spices all over your pork chops.

Heat a tbsp or two of olive or canola oil in your saute pan until hot, then add the Scan pork chops. Sear for 3-5 minutes on each side, or until browned. Once browned add 1 tbsp brown sugar to each pork chop. Turn each pork chop over, and ensure that both sides get a little melted brown sugar on them. (Don’t add the brown sugar too early or else the sugar may burn)

Bake at 350˚F/ 175˚C for 15 minutes, to make sure the pork chops are cooked through. We recommend baking your Scan pork until the internal temperature reaches 65°C / 145°F (with a light pink center) followed by a 3-minute rest time.

Just before serving, pour some of the thick sauce in the bottom of the pan over your pork chops and serve with your vegetables of choice.

No matter if you prefer your pork with a little heat or a little sweet, Scan’s flower fed Omega 3 pork is the way to go! This is the premium pork you and your family deserve. Find Scan’s flower-fed Pork at ParknShop Supermarkets across Hong Kong.

Life Fitness Hong Kong’s Carb Rules for Health and Fitness
For over 45 years  Life Fitness has been helping people lead active and healthy lives-- starting with the Lifecycle exercise bike and continuing each day with the best quality and widest range of cardio, strength and group training products in the fitness industry. If you’re looking to lose weight in 2018, following a low-carb diet could yield faster, and better results than following a low-fat diet.  But the truth is not black and white-- carbs are not all bad or all good. Some carbs can promote a healthy lifestyle while others-- especially when eaten frequently and in large quantities, will make you gain weight and become increasingly unhealthy.

Here are 3 easy to follow Carb Rules to help you sculpt the physique you seek.

Choose Slow-Release Carbohydrate Foods
Quick-release carbs cause sharp spikes in your blood sugar levels, causing you to become hungry quicker. This results in over eating and putting on weight. Slow-release (low-glycemic) carbs keep blood-sugar levels in check, which prevents insulin spikes. This helps you to stay satiated longer, maintain a healthy weight and prevent chronic diseases.

Start Your Day with Slow Carbs
Breakfast and after a good workout are the best times of day to consume carbs. These are the times your body needs you to replenish your store of energy.  Research also shows that by consuming carbs and protein at breakfast, your body is less likely to stimulate fat storage.

Want to Shed Fat? Stick to Protein before Cardio
Cardio training effectively burns both fats and carbs, so the fewer carbs in your system before hitting the treadmill, the more fat you’ll lose. But cardio on an empty stomach is not healthy, nor the most effective way of burning fat. Instead have a whey protein shake before your workout, or a couple cooked or hard boiled eggs. This will help your body burn fat like crazy during your cardio session!

Helping people live healthier lives is what we do, that’s why Life Fitness Hong Kong’s mission is to develop fitness solutions that get the world moving! Please visit our website to learn more about the Life Fitness mission and our state of the art fitness equipment for both home and professional gyms.

Gay Games Hong Kong 2022: A PRDA Client Success Story



The summer of 2016 was a remarkable one for Out in HK, the local Hong Kong-based group behind the successful bid for Gay Games Hong Kong 2022. This was the time the idea of hosting the Gay Games in Hong Kong first came to light. A couple months later Douglas White, PRDA founder and Business Director became involved, and together with his team of social media experts, started generating fresh content including weekly blogs, daily posting on social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Sina Weibo and WeChat as well as KOL outreach and Fan engagement and growth. As part of Gay Games Hong Kong 2022’s (GGHK2022) all volunteer team, PRDA helped get nearly 25,000 Facebook followers, and 13,000 Instagram followers with a monthly reach of over 1.5 million fans! In China the GGHK2022 Sina Weibo winning announcement post had over 67,000 readings!

The first step however, was the monumental task of preparing the Gay Games Hong Kong 2022 bid book… The 300 page book that resulted in Hong Kong being shortlisted to host the Gay Games in April 2017! This was a monumental step in the road leading to GGHK2022’s success. There was much time and effort put into the Bid Book’s preparation; from gathering and verifying intel and photos from the various sporting and cultural venues, to networking and gaining letters of recommendation, and finally spell checking, assembling and editing the entire book to be sent for printing. PRDA’s Bid Book contributions included working with GGHK2022 project manager David Wong (who did an amazing job organizing everything!), reviewing and editing the entire book as well as contributing written content.

After the bid book came the task of preparing for a Hong Kong site inspection visit by key members of the Gay Games Federation in May 2017 and a final presentation by the shortlisted cities in October 2017-- leading to the announcement of Hong Kong being officially chosen in huge ceremony in Paris, October 2017!


It’s now been over a year since PRDA, Asia’s leading social media agency, was asked to join Gay Games Hong Kong 2022’s team, and it’s been an incredible journey. We are so proud to have been part of their success! The social media experts at PRDA are still preparing daily social media content for GGHK2022 in Traditional Chinese, English, and Mandarin as well as generating reach, fan growth and engaging with fans on all platforms.
