Mustard Pork Chops (Easy Weeknight Dinner)
Description
This recipe applies mustard on both sides of pork chops before coating thoroughly with a flour and seasoned salt mixture. Baking at 350°F on a greased sheet produces a browned, crispy exterior. The mustard acts as both flavor and adhesive for the flour coating, contributing tartness and depth. Baking times between 30 to 45 minutes ensure proper doneness and texture.
The pork chops can be served alongside mashed potatoes and peas or other side dishes, making this a simple plate with complementing textures and flavors. The crisp-coated chops contrast with soft sides for a balanced meal.
The note suggests maintaining internal pork temperature at 145°F for safe but juicy chops, avoiding overcooking. Monitoring doneness helps retain tenderness with a hint of pink inside, offering a better eating experience.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard or brown mustard, prepared
- 1 pound pork chops
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a baking sheet.
- Combine the flour and seasoned salt in a small bowl.
- Spread 1 teaspoon of mustard on one side on the pork chop, and dredge in flour.
- Spread 1 teaspoon of mustard on the other side, and dredge. Continue until all chops are covered.
- Place the dredged pork chops on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until brown and crispy.
- Serve with mashed potatoes and peas or your favorite side dishes.
Notes
- Use a meat thermometer to remove pork chops at 145°F for optimal juiciness and a slight pink center.
