Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless pork chops
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 piece Jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel, then season both sides with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, finely chopped jalapeno, apple cider vinegar, and minced garlic to form the honey jalapeno mustard glaze.
Step 3
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove the chops from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Step 5
Lower the heat to medium and pour the honey jalapeno mustard glaze into the skillet. Let it cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly.
Step 6
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the glaze over them. Cover the skillet and let the chops simmer for 10 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure they are fully coated in the glaze.
Step 7
Check the internal temperature of the pork chops with a meat thermometer; they should reach 145°F (63°C). Once done, remove from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes.
Step 8
Serve the pork chops hot, drizzled with any remaining glaze from the pan. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
