Ingredients
Scale
- 4 bone-in or boneless pork chops
- 1/2 cup pure raw honey
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme or rosemary (optional)
Instructions
- Prep the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the honey, dijon mustard, yellow mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Marinate the Chops: Place the pork chops in a large resealable bag or shallow dish, pour the honey mustard mixture over them, ensure they’re well coated, seal, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Grilling: Preheat your grill to medium-high and grill the pork chops for 6-8 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
- Pan-Searing: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, sear for 4-5 minutes on each side, then transfer to a preheated oven at 375°F for 10-15 minutes.
- Baking: Preheat the oven to 375°F, place marinated chops on a baking sheet lined with parchment, and bake for 25-30 minutes, basting halfway through.
- Rest Before Serving: Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs or drizzle with leftover marinade before serving.
Notes
Try adding cayenne pepper for a spicy kick or toasted sesame seeds for crunch.
