Honey Mustard Pretzel Pork Chops
Description
This honey mustard pretzel pork chop recipe is a great way to cook pork chops without drying them out. With a quick honey mustard sauce, they have so much flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce
- 3 cups honey mustard pretzels, such as dots® honey mustard pretzels
- 4 center-cut, bone-in pork chops
- 1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
- 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet; set aside.
- Whisk eggs and hot sauce together in a shallow dish. Crush pretzels in a food processor or plastic bag and add them to a second shallow dish.
- Season pork chops evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Coat each pork chop in egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then coat each liberally in pretzel crumbs.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops, 2 at a time, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
- Meanwhile, combine mustard, mayonnaise, honey, vinegar, and remaining salt and pepper in a small bowl and mix well. Microwave mustard sauce for 15 seconds, stir, and serve with pork chops.
