Be careful pre-flop against some UTG (tight UTG), and look the blinds. If they are fish, maybe the best choice is flat. Flop I liked the way you played and OTT perfect, size pot always.

Whats interesting to me is that everybody dislikes the pre-flop play but think that turn play is 100% fine. I think we need to dig little bit deeper here.
I mean yes 3-bet is little bit too loose but certainly not the worst play in the world, we need to mix it up against some opponents.
Flop play is standard, we have top two pair and our hand needs protection.
Now on the turn it gets interesting imo. Lets think about ranges a little bit. His UTG shouldnt be the weakest range it may include hands like AAxx, strong KKxx, maybe some double pairs, all strong rundows like AKQJds, KQJ10ds, some lower ds rundowns aso. His play so far says that he doesnt have AA but he certainly can have all other hand combinations. So thats been said I feel that K on the turn is little bit worrysome.
If we think about the hands he might have called our re-raise on the flop, I´m not gonna list all of those, KKcc is certainly there, AKJ10cc is certainly there.
All that leads me to believe that theres a big possibility that our hand isnt the best hand anymore and sorry guys I feel so nitty but I think that checking back is not out of the question here.
I really feel that checking back is better option than commiting our whole stack!
