Equipment

1 14-inch skillet

Ingredients

1 ½-2 pounds boneless pork chops 1-inch thick
½ cup honey
½ cup stone ground mustard or whole grain mustard
1 ½ tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon minced garlic about 1 clove
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper optional
1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

Combine ½ cup honey, ½ cup stone ground mustard, 1 ½ tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, ½ teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, and ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper together in a small bowl.
Pat 1 ½-2 pounds boneless pork chops completely dry with paper towels, then season on both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large 14-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops in a single layer and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
Flip the pork chops and spread the honey mustard sauce evenly over the tops of them. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the centers reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
Remove from the heat and serve immediately.
