Categories     Entree

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup whiskey
2 tablespoons molasses
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon red pepper sauce
1 large sweet onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 medium tomatoes, cut in half
4 bone-in pork loin or rib chops, 1/2 inch thick (1 lb), trimmed of fat
Chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley if desired

Steps:

  • Spray grill rack with cooking spray. Heat gas or charcoal grill. In 1-quart saucepan, stir mustard, brown sugar, whiskey, molasses, vinegar and pepper sauce with whisk. Cook over medium-low heat 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat. Pour 1/4 cup of the sauce into small bowl.
  • Generously brush cut sides of onion slices and tomato halves with 2 tablespoons of the sauce in bowl. Generously brush pork chops with half of the remaining sauce in pan. Place pork, onions and tomatoes, cut sides down, on grill over medium heat. Brush tops of onions and tomatoes with remaining 2 tablespoons sauce in bowl. Brush tops of pork chops with remaining sauce in pan.
  • Cover grill; cook 5 to 7 minutes, turning pork and onions once (do not turn tomatoes), until pork is no longer pink in center, onions are crisp-tender and tomatoes are tender. Discard any remaining sauce. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Look for thick-cut, bone-in pork chops for the best flavor and texture.
  • Brine the pork chops: Brining the pork chops in a mixture of water, salt, and sugar helps to tenderize them and keep them moist during cooking.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade in this recipe is packed with flavor from Dijon mustard, olive oil, garlic, and herbs. Be sure to let the pork chops marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the pork chops while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork chops are cooked through: The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the pork chops, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bite.

Conclusion:

This Dijon grilled pork chops recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy this classic dish. The pork chops are tender, juicy, and flavorful, and the Dijon mustard marinade adds a nice tangy kick. Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a simple salad.
