Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Bourbon
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth (low sodium)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides evenly with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until the butter has melted and starts to foam.
Step 3
Add the pork chops to the skillet and cook for 4–5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Remove the chops from the skillet and set aside on a plate, keeping them warm with foil.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Carefully add the bourbon to the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or spatula. Allow the bourbon to simmer for 1–2 minutes to cook off some of the alcohol.
Step 5
Stir in the Dijon mustard, heavy cream, and chicken broth. Whisk everything until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Simmer the sauce for 5–7 minutes, letting it thicken slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary, by adding a pinch of salt or more black pepper.
Step 7
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the meat to coat evenly. Allow the chops to heat through for an additional 2–3 minutes.
Step 8
Transfer the pork chops to serving plates and drizzle with the bourbon mustard sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately.
