Instructions

Step 1: Season 4 bone-in pork chops with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper on both sides. Set aside.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add pork chops and sear for 4-5 minutes per side until a golden-brown crust forms and internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Step 3: While chops cook, whisk together 3 tbsp Missouri honey, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar, and 2 minced garlic cloves in a small bowl until smooth.
Step 4: Reduce heat to medium-low, pour glaze over pork chops in the skillet, and cook for 2 more minutes, spooning glaze over chops until it thickens slightly and coats them well.
Step 5: Remove chops from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before serving with extra glaze drizzled on top.
