Ingredients

  • 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, paprika, ground black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for deeper flavor.

Step 3

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

Step 4

Remove the pork chops from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, and reserve the marinade for later use.

Step 5

Sear the pork chops in the hot skillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they develop a golden-brown crust.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to medium and pour the reserved marinade and chicken broth into the skillet. Cover and let the pork chops simmer for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 7

Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest on a plate for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Increase the heat to medium-high and simmer the sauce in the skillet for another 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly.

Step 9

Serve the pork chops drizzled with the reduced sauce, and garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy!
