Salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 lbs pork chops
2 tblsp olive oil
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tsp dried thyme
2 tblsp dijon mustard
2 tblsp lemon juice
This simple recipe doesn't sound like much but it is very tasty and quick to make. The mustard and lemon combine to give a nice sunny flavour.
Heat a very large skillet over medium high heat. While doing this, sprinkle salt and pepper on the pork chops to taste. When the skillet is hot, add olive oil and then the pork chops. Sear the chops on both sides to a golden brown.
Add the thyme and chicken broth to the skillet, cover and turn the heat to medium-low, simmering for 10 minutes.
Remove the pork chops to a serving plate. Turn the heat back up to medium high and add the mustard and lemon juice. Ensure you scrape up any of the brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Stir until the sauce is the consistency of cream. Pour over the pork chops and serve.
