Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Whole-grain mustard
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, mix Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to create a marinade.
Brush the mustard marinade generously on both sides of the pork chops. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
In a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side until they develop a golden-brown crust. Remove the chops from the skillet and set them aside.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and melt the butter. Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, and fresh thyme, stirring to combine. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the mustard sauce over them. Cover the skillet and let the chops cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the mustard pork chops hot, drizzled with the creamy sauce.
