Ingredients
- 4 boneless pork chops
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Directions
- In a bowl, whisk together ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper to make the cocktail sauce.
- Place the pork chops in a shallow dish and pour the cocktail sauce over them. Make sure the chops are well coated. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for enhanced flavor.
- Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Remove the pork chops from the marinade, allowing excess sauce to drip off, and place them in the hot skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until nicely browned and cooked through.
- Transfer the cooked pork chops to a plate and tent with foil to keep them warm.
- Pour the remaining marinade into the skillet and bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Place the pork chops back into the skillet with the sauce and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, coating them well with the sauce.
- Serve the pork chops hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley. Pair the dish with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a side salad for a complete meal.
