Turn the oven on to 400°F (200°C). In the meantime, rub the seasoning all over the pork chops.
02 -
Warm up a skillet with olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chops for 2-3 minutes on each side until they have a nice golden sear.
03 -
Take the pork chops out of the skillet. Lower the heat and mix in the garlic, honey, and both mustards. Stir for about 2-3 minutes until it starts to thicken.
04 -
Melt the butter in the pan and cook the minced garlic for 1-2 minutes. Let the aroma take over.
05 -
Bake the skillet in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the pork’s internal temperature hits 145°F. Let it cool for 5 minutes, top with parsley, and enjoy.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Let the chops marinate overnight for deeper flavor.

Juicy pork? 145°F is your magic number.
