04 -
1/4 cup of honey

1 tablespoon yellow mustard (the kind that’s pre-made)
06 -
2 tablespoons of whole grain mustard
07 -
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar or apple cider vinegar
08 -
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
09 -
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
10 -
Salt and pepper to adjust to your taste

# Instructions:
01 -
Turn your oven on to 425°F (220°C) and let it heat up.
02 -
Coat the pork chops with oil, then season with salt and pepper. Place them on a greased baking sheet with sides and pop them in the oven for 20 minutes.
03 -
While the pork cooks, combine the honey, both types of mustard, vinegar, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Give it a taste and adjust the honey or mustard to your preference.
04 -
Spread the honey mustard sauce generously over the pork chops after the first round of baking. Set your oven to broil on high and cook for another 5-10 minutes. The chops should be fully cooked, and the sauce should get sticky with a slight caramelized glaze.
05 -
Plate the pork chops, drizzle the sauce from the pan on top, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and enjoy.
# Notes:
01 -
For the best outcome, let the pork chops sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before cooking.
02 -
Pork is good to eat when its internal temperature hits 145°F (63°C) and it rests for 3 minutes.
