Honey Mustard Pork Chops
Honey Mustard Pork Chops use on-hand ingredients and are ready in 25 minutes for an easy, delicious weeknight dinner with a scrumptious sauce the whole family will love!
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 4 (1-inch thick) boneless pork chops
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- ¼ cup low-sodium chicken broth
Instructions
- Season the pork chops with paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the seasoned pork chops and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until nearly cooked through.
- Reduce the heat to medium low and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
- Add the sliced onion to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized.
- Add the honey, mustards and broth to the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, until slightly thickened.
- Return the pork chops to the skillet, turn to coat in the sauce, and warm through for a minute. Serve pork chops with onions and sauce over top.
Notes
Pork chops: Make sure to use thin boneless pork chops, about 1 inch thick. If you are using bone-in or thick cut pork chops, your cook time will be very different. Also, be careful NOT to overcook the pork! The thin chops don’t take long.
Pork temp: Pork should be cooked to a minimum internal temperature of 145. Then let it rest for about 5 minutes before cutting. A digital thermometer can help you cook your pork safely and properly. I use and love this one.
Onion: I adore onions and I love what they do for the sauce. If you aren’t a fan, feel free to skip them.
Mustard: The recipe calls for Dijon mustard AND whole grain mustard. I like the flavor and texture from using both. However, you can also use all Dijon if you don’t have any whole grain mustard.
Broth: This adds some flavor to the sauce, but you could use water as well.
Leftovers: Leftover pork chops, once cooled, will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. Store in an airtight container and be sure to store the pork with the remaining sauce. Reheat individual servings in the microwave or reheat slowly on the stove, until warmed through. I recommend you slice the pork before reheating so it warms through more quickly and evenly, without drying out.
