Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp lemon juice to make the glaze.
  2. Step 2: Place 1 lb halved baby red potatoes in a roasting pan. Toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary. Roast potatoes for 25 minutes until golden and tender.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, season 4 bone-in pork chops with salt and pepper. Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear pork chops for 3 minutes per side until browned.
  4. Step 4: Brush pork chops generously with half of the honey-mustard glaze. Transfer skillet with chops to the oven along with the potatoes and bake for 10-12 minutes until pork reaches 145°F internal temperature.
  5. Step 5: Remove chops from oven and brush with remaining glaze. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving with the roasted garlic potatoes.
