PORK CHOPS WITH APRICOT SAUCE
From All You magazine. I haven't tried this one yet, but it looks good to me. It says you can use honey or orange marmalade in place of apricot jam, or a flavored mustard. And it says it's good with a tablespoon or two of chopped fresh rosemary or thyme. I don't know why recipezaar and the magazin show such a HUGE difference in nutritional information, but the recipe shows: per serving: 310 calories, 13g fat (2g Sat.), 60mg chol., 0g fiber, 21g Pro., 28g Carb., 577mg Sod.

PORK CHOPS WITH JAMMY-MUSTARD GLAZE
Fruit and mustard are two classic accompaniments to pork, and really, a juicy chop doesn't need much more than that for a sweet and tangy sauce. Mix together water, grainy mustard and any fruit preserve that's good with pork like cherry, fig, peach or apricot. Sear bone-in pork chops mostly on one side to prevent overcooking, then pour the fruit-mustard mixture into the skillet while they rest. The pork will stay moist, and its juices will have time to mingle with the sauce. Then just slice the pork and drape it in the velvety two-ingredient glaze. Eat with mashed or roasted potatoes and a green salad.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup water, the preserves and the mustard. Set near the stove. Pat the pork chops dry, and season all over with salt and pepper.
- In a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. Add the pork chops and cook, occasionally pressing down to make good contact with the skillet, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, flip the chops and cook until opaque on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the jam-mustard mixture, turn off the heat, and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Transfer the chops to plates, then return the skillet to medium-low heat and simmer, scraping up browned bits, until the sauce has thickened slightly, 1 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. Every jam is different, so if it's too sweet, add more mustard, salt or black pepper; if it's too salty, add a little more jam; if it's too intense or thick, add a little more water; if it's flat, add salt. Spoon sauce over the pork chops.
Tips:
- For a tangy and flavorful sauce, use a good quality apricot preserves or jam and grainy mustard. The sweetness and acidity of the apricots will perfectly balance out the sharpness of the mustard.
- If you don't have apricot preserves or jam, you can use other fruit preserves, such as peach or orange, but make sure to adjust the amount of sugar you add to the sauce accordingly.
- Pork chops are best cooked over medium-high heat to prevent them from drying out. If you're using a grill, cook the chops over indirect heat to avoid flare-ups.
- To check if the pork chops are done, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chop. The internal temperature should read 145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for medium.
- Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
- Serve the pork chops with the apricot mustard sauce, rice, mashed potatoes, or your favorite side dish.
Conclusion:
Apricot mustard sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used with a variety of dishes, but it is especially good when paired with pork chops. The sweetness and acidity of the apricots and the sharpness of the mustard create a perfect balance of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. This easy-to-make sauce is sure to become a new favorite in your kitchen.
