Sweet honey and hot mustard are wonderfully balanced in this easy-to-whip-up Dijon sauce that makes an ace topping for savory roasted pork. You can also try the sauce on roasted or grilled chicken. We like serving these meaty chops with steamed green beans or mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

5 spray(s)

Uncooked bone-in lean and trimmed center pork rib chop

24 oz, 4 (6-oz) pork chops

Table salt

tsp

Black pepper

tsp

Dijon mustard

¼ cup(s)

Honey

1 Tbsp

White wine vinegar

1 Tbsp

Dry mustard

¼ tsp

Garlic powder

¼ tsp

Rosemary sprig

3 item(s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Coat a large baking dish with cooking spray. Season both sides of the pork with the salt and black pepper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk the Dijon mustard, honey, vinegar, dry mustard, garlic powder, and 1 tbsp water.
  3. Coat a heavy 12-inch skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high. Add the pork chops and rosemary sprigs and cook until the pork is well browned on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the pork chops to the prepared baking dish.
  4. Brush 2 tbsp of the mustard sauce over the pork chops, reserving the remaining sauce. Roast the pork chops until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest parts of the chops registers 145°F, 8 to 10 minutes. Before serving, spoon the reserved mustard sauce on top of the pork chops.
  5. Serving size: 1 pork chop and 1½ tbsp sauce.
