Skillet Seared Honey Mustard Pork Chops

Lean chops stay moist and succulent with this preparation. Marinating the pork for a short time heightens the flavor of this dish.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons GOLDEN BLOSSOM HONEY

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon dry mustard

4 (1-inch thick) boneless pork chops

1 tablespoon olive oil

Honey Tips

How Honey Is Created

Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.

Directions

Preheat oven to 450°.
Combine honey, vinegar and mustard in a small bowl. Dip pork chops into marinade to coat. Place on a plate and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in an ovenproof skillet over a high heat. Once hot (not smoking), add chops and sear for 2 minutes or until chops are well browned on the bottom. Turn meat over and place skillet in oven for about 10 minutes, until chops are no longer pink inside.
