A delightful twist on classic pork chops, featuring a honey Dijon glaze for a sweet and tangy flavor.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Adding a splash of oil to the butter can prevent it from burning.
Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides.
Let the pork chops sit at room temperature for 10 minutes after seasoning to enhance flavor.
Dredge the pork chops in flour, shaking off any excess.
Use a shallow dish for easy dredging.
Sear the pork chops in the skillet until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even browning.
In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add water, honey, and Dijon mustard to the skillet, whisking to combine.
Adjust the sweetness and tanginess of the sauce by varying the honey and mustard ratio.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Cover and simmer until the pork is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Serve the pork chops with the sauce drizzled over them.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
