PORK CHOPS DIJON - LOW CARB

Pork Chops Dijon - Low Carb image

Quick & yummy recipe that I made last night, and LOVED! I used sliced pork loin instead of chops, and I didn't have any low-carb Italian, so used Woody's Parmesan Peppercorn, instead. And surprisingly, it didn't have a STRONG mustard flavor, even with 3 tbs of dijon. Another keeper from Better Homes & Gardens "Phase I Low Carb Recipes."

LOW CARB DIJON PARMESAN CRUSTED PORK CHOPS RECIPE

Low Carb Dijon Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops Recipe image

Provided by teamsosa

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

4 pork loin chops, boneless
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 cup Dijon Mustard
2 tbsp. spicy brown mustard
2 tbsp. olive oil
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. thyme
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. dried oregano
1/4 tsp. dried basil
1/4 tsp. Italian Seasoning
1 Cup Parmesan Cheese - Grated

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°F Season chops on both sides with kosher salt and pepper. In a shallow mixing bowl, combine Dijon mustard, spicy brown mustard, olive oil, garlic powder, thyme, onion powder, dried oregano, dried basil, and Italian seasoning. Dredge each chop in the mustard mixture, liberally coating both sides. On a large plate, spread Parmesan cheese into a thin layer. Coat mustard covered chops liberally with Parmesan cheese on both sides. Place a cooling rack on top of a baking sheet and place chops on cooling rack. This will allow them to get crisp on both sides. Bake for 20 minutes. Then broil on high, on the top oven rack for 3-4 minutes or until chops are nice and crisp and golden brown.

Tips:

Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to perfection without drying out. The internal temperature should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius) for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit (68 degrees Celsius) for medium, and 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius) for well done.
To achieve a crispy outer layer on the pork chops, sear them in a hot skillet before transferring them to the oven to finish cooking. This technique creates a beautiful crust while keeping the inside of the chops tender and juicy.
Don't overcrowd the skillet when searing the pork chops. Give them enough space so that they can brown evenly without steaming.
Use a flavorful and tangy Dijon mustard for the sauce. This will add a delicious depth of flavor to the dish.
If you don't have Dijon mustard on hand, you can substitute another type of mustard, such as yellow or brown mustard. However, the flavor of the sauce will be slightly different.
Garnish the finished pork chops with fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, or rosemary, for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Pork chops Dijon is a flavorful and satisfying low-carb meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of tender and juicy pork chops, tangy Dijon mustard sauce, and crispy roasted vegetables is sure to please everyone at the table. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that is sure to become a family favorite.
