CAST IRON SKILLET PORK CHOPS WITH DIJON SAUCE
This is a quick, simple cast iron pork chop recipe that is packed with flavor, and also low carb! The bonus is this sauce would be great on chicken and beef as well. Note: I'm not the biggest fan of any type of mustard, but I found this sauce to be divine and the mustard is not overpowering at all.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Blot pork chops on each side with a paper towel to absorb any moisture. Score the fat along the side on each chop so they don't curl. Season both sides of each chop with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops in the hot skillet until a nice crust is formed, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chop should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- While pork chops are baking, pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the skillet and reduce the heat to medium. Add onion and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of wine and bring to a boil. Let wine reduce by half, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Stir in remaining wine and chicken broth. Bring back to a boil and reduce by half.
- Pour in cream; bring back to a boil and cook until reduced and thickened. To test for thickness, remove a spoonful of sauce and run a finger through it. If a clear path is left, the sauce is ready. Remove from heat and stir in remaining butter and Dijon mustard. Stir in parsley.
- Remove chops from the oven, top with sauce, and serve.

HOISIN-GLAZED PORK CHOPS WITH DIJON DIPPING SAUCE
My wife, Ali, and I always stop at Mustards Grill in Napa during our trips to wine country and eat this dish ritualistically. It really is the best pork chop I've ever eaten. I needed to crack the code and figure out the recipe. Here's my version of Cindy Pawlcyn's dish and I hope you love it as much as I do.

Steps:
- For the pork and marinade: Place the pork chops in a 1- gallon resealable plastic bag. Combine the remaining marinade ingredients (except for the neutral oil) in a mini food processor and process until incorporated, or whisk together in a medium bowl. This will be your marinade and glaze.
- Coat the pork chops liberally with the marinade and marinate for 3 hours and up to overnight in the refrigerator.
- Prepare a grill by heating one side to high and the other to low. Alternatively, heat a large grill pan over 2 burners -- one on high heat and the other turned off. Clean and grease the grates.
- Remove the chops from the bag and reserve the marinade for basting. Blot the chops with paper towels, then grill, undisturbed, until you have a great grill mark on each chop, 4 to 6 minutes. Baste with the reserved marinade then rotate a quarter turn and grill until you have a nice crosshatch mark, another 4 to 6 minutes. Flip over and repeat the grilling, basting and turning.
- Start to take an internal temperature after both sides are grilled and basted. If you don't hit 165 degrees F, move the pork chop to the cooler side and cover to create a convection oven. The pork is ready when it registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove from the heat and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the mustard sauce: Stir together all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water, if needed, to thin the sauce.
- Drizzle the mustard sauce over the pork chops or serve on the side for dipping.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F.
- Using small sharp knife, make pocket in each pork chop by cutting into side of chop toward bone. Season chops with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Place Swiss cheese slices on top of ham slices, and starting from one of the short ends, roll up. Tuck 1 ham and cheese roll into each pork chop pocket.
- In shallow pan, stir flour, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Coat both sides of pork chops with flour mixture. Beat egg in shallow bowl with whisk to blend. Place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl. Dip pork chops into beaten egg; turn to coat. Dredge in bread crumb mixture, coating completely.
- In 12-inch skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add pork chops; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until golden brown, turning once. Transfer to lightly greased 15x10x1-inch pan. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until pork is no long pink (at least 145°F).
- Meanwhile, in 8-inch skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add shallots; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Add broth and wine; cook 10 to 15 minutes or until reduced by three-fourths. Stir in cream; cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Stir in mustard and parsley. Remove from heat.
- Place pork chops on serving plates. Serve with sauce.

PORK CHOPS WITH DIJON SAUCE
In the Burgundy region of France, home of Dijon, pork chops are traditionally served in a sauce made with mustard, cream and white wine, and there are very few pairings that are better. Richard Olney, a prominent food writer and authority on French cooking, sautéed sliced apples and chops and then baked them all together with cream and mustard dribbled on top. I prefer the method here, but you could always fry up some apples and serve them on the side. (For a dish with roots closer to Normandy than Burgundy, make the same recipe but omit the mustard, deglaze the pan with Calvados instead of wine and stir sliced sautéed Granny Smiths into the sauce itself.)

Steps:
- Melt butter in the oil in a large deep skillet over high heat. Season chops with salt and pepper and add them, browning well, about 2 or 3 minutes a side, reducing the heat slightly if chops brown too quickly.
- Remove chops to a platter and pour off most of the fat. Add green onions or shallots and cook over medium-high heat until softened, about 1 minute. Add wine and bring to a boil, scraping brown bits off the bottom. Stir in the stock and return chops to the pan. Bring the sauce to a simmer, cover and cook until chops are tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove the chops to a warm platter; cover with foil to keep warm. Raise the heat and boil pan juices to reduce by half, about 2 minutes. Add cream and boil 2 minutes more, until sauce reduces a bit and thickens. Remove from the heat and whisk in mustard and the parsley, if using. Taste and add more mustard if desired. Immediately spoon sauce over the chops and serve.

PORK CHOPS WITH DIJON CREAM SAUCE
This recipe calls for reduced sodium, fat free chicken broth and fat free evaporated milk, but I've also made it with regular chicken broth and regular evaporated milk. Good both ways...and nice to know that something can be healthy and still taste yummy! I also use the thin cut pork chops just as a matter of preference. I got this recipe in the mail on a recipe card from some company that wanted me to buy their cookbook...please, I have Zaar! What do I need with their cookbooks...but I sure like this recipe of theirs!

Tips:
- Choose the Right Pork Chops: Select bone-in pork chops for extra flavor and juiciness. Look for chops that are about 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling.
- Brine the Pork Chops (Optional): Brining the pork chops in a mixture of water, salt, and sugar helps to tenderize and flavor them. You can brine the chops for up to 24 hours, but even a few hours will make a difference.
- Sear the Pork Chops: Searing the pork chops in a hot skillet creates a delicious crust and helps to seal in the juices. Make sure the skillet is very hot before adding the chops, and sear them for 2-3 minutes per side.
- Finish Cooking the Pork Chops: After searing, the pork chops can be finished cooking in the oven or on the stovetop. If cooking in the oven, bake them at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. If cooking on the stovetop, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the chops for an additional 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
- Make the Dijon Sauce: While the pork chops are cooking, make the Dijon sauce. This sauce is made with Dijon mustard, white wine, shallots, and cream. It is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on pork, chicken, or fish.
- Serve the Pork Chops: Serve the pork chops immediately with the Dijon sauce. They can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
Conclusion:
Pork chops with Dijon sauce is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The pork chops are juicy and flavorful, and the Dijon sauce is creamy and tangy. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
