ADVERTISEMENT

Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare the Pork Chops:

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels.

Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Coat with Mustard and Garlic:

In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard and minced garlic.

Brush or spread the mustard mixture evenly over each pork chop.

(Optional) Quick Sear:

For extra flavor, quickly sear the pork chops in a hot skillet with olive oil for about 2 minutes per side before baking.

Bake to Perfection:

Place the pork chops in a baking dish.

Pour the chicken broth or water into the bottom of the dish to keep the chops moist.

Cover with foil and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

Rest and Serve:

Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes after baking.

Garnish with chopped parsley if desired before serving.
