Maple-Mustard Pork Chops
Cooking Light - March 2010
Serves 4

4 pork chops
1/2 tsp. salt, divided
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. finely chopped shallots
1/4 C. chicken broth
2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp. maple syrup
2 Tbsp. parsley

Sprinkle both sides of pork with 1/4 tsp. salt and pepper.  (I eyeballed it and was fine.)

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and coat pan with Pam.  Add pork and cook 3 minutes on each side or until cooked through.  Remove from pan.

Add butter to pan, swirling to coat.  Add shallots and saute until tender.  Add broth.  Bring to a boil and cook 1 minute.  Stir in mustard, syrup, and remaining salt.  Cook 1 minute more.  Return pork to pan.  Cook 1 minute on each side or until thoroughly heated.  Serve with extra sauce.

Enjoy!
