Honey Pork Chops

Today I am sharing one of my most favorite easy, quick, ingredients-always-on-hand dinners.  Let me fist confess my saying that I am typically not a fan of pork chops.  I don't know what it is about them, but this meat was never one I went to for any meal.  Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, my husband LOVES pork chops.  I stumbled across this recipe about a year ago now, and thought I would give it a try.  I think it was the honey and brown sugar along with the desire to make my hubby a IC-approved dinner that he would love that made this one happen.  The original recipe is on allrecipes, but I've changed the amounts of a few things.  Find the original here, and my preferred method is below.  Whether you are a pork chop lover or not, you've got to love a dinner that requires all easy and on-hand ingredients.  I like to serve these with a homemade bread and a vegetable for a well-rounded yummy meal.



Ingredients:
4 boneless pork chops
Salt
Ground black pepper
4 Tbls packed brown sugar
4 Tbls Honey

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides.  Heat skillet over medium heat.  Add pork chops and cook until brown, turning once.  Place in 9x13 baking dish.
3. Combine brown sugar and honey in a small bowl.  Microwave for 20 seconds, and stir to combine.
4. Spoon half of honey mixture evenly over-top pork chops
5. Bake for 15 minutes in preheated oven.
6. Remove from oven, flip chops, and spread with remaining honey mixture.
7. Bake for another 15 minutes.
8. Serve making sure to spoon some of the extra drippings over top your chops!
