A couple of weeks ago, I asked what my readers wanted to see and there were lots of requests for soups and slow cooker recipes. I’ve been making a bunch of new recipes using the slow cooker and lots of soup recipes too. This recipe for maple Dijon pork chops was so simple and I loved the unique flavor of the maple and Dijon, plus the chops were falling apart as I tried to plate them. The kids inhaled their dinner and there were no complaints. The only change I’ll make next time I make this recipe will be to use whole grain Dijon mustard.
4 large boneless pork chops
1 large onion, chopped
3 Tbsp pure maple syrup
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 tsp salt
Dash of fresh ground pepper
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
In large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Season the chops with salt and pepper. Place the chops in the skillet and sear for 2 minutes in each side. Transfer to your slow cooker.
Lower the heat of the skillet and add the onions. Cook until the onions begin to soften. Add the syrup, mustard, vinegar and salt and pepper. Simmer for an additional two minutes and then pour over chops in the slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-7 hours. Serve with the remaining sauce.
