How to Make Apricot Mustard Glazed Pork Chops Bone In

1. Season both sides of 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1 inch thick) generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Add pork chops and 1 medium yellow onion, cut into wedges, to the skillet.
4. Cook for 3-6 minutes per side, or until nicely browned.
5. Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup apricot preserves, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1/4 cup water, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
6. Microwave on high for 1 minute, or until the mixture is smooth and melted, stirring halfway through.
7. Pour the apricot mustard glaze over the pork chops in the skillet.
8. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
9. If you desire a thicker glaze, uncover the skillet during the last few minutes of cooking and let the sauce reduce slightly.
10. Serve immediately and enjoy!
