How to Make Apple Mustard Glazed Pork Chops
- Season pork chops generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Brown pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Transfer browned pork chops to a slow cooker or a Dutch oven.
- In the same skillet, add 1/2 cup apple juice, 1/4 cup apple jelly, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar (optional, for extra tang). Stir to combine.
- Pour the glaze over the pork chops in the slow cooker or Dutch oven.
- If using a slow cooker, cook on low for 3-4 hours or on high for 1.5-2 hours, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the glaze has thickened. If using a Dutch oven, cover and cook over low heat for 20-25 minutes, until the pork chops are cooked through and the glaze has thickened.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
