- 3/4 cup chicken stock or broth
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp chopped
- 1/2 tsp salt
- fresh ground pepper
- 4 pork chops
Instructions
- 1
Begin by melting the butter in a spacious skillet over a gentle, moderate heat.
- 2
Season the pork chops generously with salt and freshly ground pepper.

Increase the heat to medium and introduce the chops to the skillet. Sauté them for approximately 7 minutes. Flip the chops and continue cooking until they are nicely browned and reach a medium doneness, about another 7 to 8 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the chops to a warm area to rest.

In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté, stirring frequently, until they become tender, which should take around 3 minutes. Then, pour in the stock and allow it to come to a boil, reducing it until it measures about 1/2 cup, roughly 2 to 3 minutes.

Mix in the Dijon mustard, herbs, and a pinch of pepper (1/8 tsp).
- 6
Arrange the pork chops on a serving platter and drizzle the prepared sauce over the top of the meat.

Notes & Tips
- Food and Wine says it is OK if the pork chops are pink in the center. Trichinosis is killed at the relatively low temperature of 150°. I use a thermometer to check the center and usually leave it until it hits 160°. (Don't overcook or they will become dry.)
