Tender pork chops seared to perfection and glazed with a sweet and tangy blend of honey, mustard, and garlic for a quick, flavorful dinner.
6 Servings
Ingredients
- 6 boneless pork chops
- 1 ½ tablespoons garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons dry mustard powder
Instructions
Prepare the glaze
- In a small bowl, combine the honey, prepared mustard, and dry mustard powder. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Heat the skillet
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and allow it to warm until shimmering but not smoking.
Season and sear the pork chops
- Arrange the pork chops in the skillet in a single layer. Sprinkle evenly with garlic powder. Cook each chop for approximately 3 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
Apply the glaze
- Brush the honey mustard mixture generously onto the pork chops. Turn the chops once more, and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes on each side, ensuring the glaze caramelizes and the pork is cooked through.
Rest before serving
- Remove the pork chops from the skillet and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before serving. This step helps retain their juiciness.
