Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional, for added smoky flavor)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using) until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
Place the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the honey mustard marinade over the pork chops, coating them evenly. Reserve a small portion of the marinade (about 2 tablespoons) for basting during grilling.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and let the pork chops marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for more intense flavor.
When ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork chops from the marinade, letting excess marinade drip off. Discard the leftover marinade used for marinating the pork.
Place the pork chops on the preheated grill. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, brushing with the reserved marinade occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium doneness.
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm with your favorite sides like grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp green salad.
