Ingredients

4 boneless pork chops (1/2 inch thick)
½ cup Dijon mustard
6 Tablespoons honey
4 garlic cloves (minced)
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon paprika
¼ cup all-purpose flour
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 Tablespoons avocado oil
2 Tablespoons butter
¼ cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic, dried thyme, and paprika.
Place the boneless pork chops in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour half of the honey mustard mixture over the pork chops, ensuring they are evenly coated. Reserve the remaining half for later use. Marinate the pork chops in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, turning the pork chops occasionally.
After marinating, season the pork chops with salt and pepper, then dredge them in the all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
In a large skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat.
Once the skillet is hot, add the pork chops to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown.
Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter; stir to combine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Add the reserved honey mustard mixture and pour in the chicken broth. Stir well.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Simmer for 2 additional minutes to reheat the chops. Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before cutting.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Always follow the guidelines from FoodSafety.gov to determine a safe minimum internal temperature for pork (145°F with rest time: 3 minutes) and use a food thermometer to check.

Honey Mustard Pork Chops should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
