Dijon Maple Pork Chops

Today I have a package of center cut pork chops that I am going to pan fry in a decadent Dijon maple sauce.   I read this recipe on Men’s Health website and thought it sounded delicious and turns out I was right!

Dijon Maple Pork Chops - Serves 2

2 Center Cut Bone in Pork Chops
1TB Maple Syrup
1TB Dijon Mustard
1tsp Minced Garlic
Salt & Pepper
1tsp Olive Oil

Mix syrup, mustard, & garlic in a small bowl and set to the side.  Salt and pepper pork chops on both sides and then spread half of the sauce evenly over both pork chops.  Heat a skillet up over medium high heat with the olive oil.  Place the pork chops in the skillet cooking 3-4 minutes per side,  a minute or two after flipping the chops pour the remainder of the sauce over the chops to finish the meal.  Remove the pork from the pan and let sit for at least 2 minutes before serving to ensure the pork chops do not dry out.

  1. Delicious!!! I made them tonight with a few modifications. I used boneless pork chops and used honey mustard instead of dijon since I'm not a huge mustard fan. The mustard taste was subdued a bit and it was somewhat sweet. I marinated my pork chops for a few hours. They turned out really juicy and delectable! Great recipe :)
