Ingredients

  • 2 boneless pork chops
  • salt & pepper
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 2 tbs butter (divided)
  • 1 heaping cup brussels sprouts
  • 2 fresh peaches (sliced)
  • ¼ cup fresh basil

Honey & Mustard Pan Sauce

  • ¼ cup white wine
  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbs honey
  • 1 tbs grainy mustard (see note)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)

Instructions

  • Prepare Brussels sprouts by trimming ends, removing any damaged outer leafs, and slicing in half.
  • Heat large skillet over medium high heat, add 1 tbs of butter and oil. When butter is melted and oil is hot. Season pork with salt and pepper on both sides and add to pan.
  • Add Brussels sprouts to pan with cut side down, spreading them evenly out around pork.
  • Sear pork for 5 minutes per side, stirring Brussels sprouts gently after flipping the pork.
  • While this cooks, whisk together sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
  • When pork is cooked through, remove the pork chops from the pan and set aside covered with foil or a lid to rest. (leaving Brussels sprouts in the pan to continue to cook)
  • Reduce pan heat to medium. Add remaining 1 tbs butter to pan along with peaches and sauce, stir to coat and cook until peaches begin to soften and Brussels sprouts are cooked (about 2 minutes).
  • Add pork back to pan, and spoon sauce over top to coat.
  • Top with fresh basil that has been thinly sliced or torn.

Notes

For the mustard, I used Sriracha mustard, which is a little spicy and slightly grainy. Any whole grain or stone ground mustard will do. You just want to use one that packs a lot of flavor, since there are so few ingredients in this sauce.
