I'M VERY FOND of honey-mustard salad dressing, so I attempted to duplicate that taste when I created this pork recipe. My husband thinks it's delicious. It's quick and easy to prepare. Sometimes I'll put a sweet potato in the oven to bake at the same time, then I'll have a complete meal for two. -Audrey Thibodeau, Mesa, Arizona

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless pork loin chops (1/2 inch thick)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Dash pepper
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup orange juice, divided
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • 2 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 small onion, cut into eighths
  • 1/2 small green pepper, cut into squares
  • 1/2 small sweet red pepper, cut into squares

Directions

  1. Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper; place in a heavy ovenproof skillet. In a small bowl, whisk flour and 2 tablespoons orange juice until smooth; whisk in the honey, mustard, basil and remaining orange juice. Pour over chops. Place carrots and onion around chops.
  2. Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Add peppers; cover and bake 20 minutes longer or until vegetables are tender and pork is no longer pink.
