The Dijon mustard cream sauce on these pork chops is surprisingly light due to fat-free half-and-half or evaporated milk. This is a delicious low-calorie entree, fast and easy to make.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 4 (4-ounce) boneless center-cut pork loin chops (1/2-inch thick)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • Cooking spray
  • 1/3 cup fat-free, reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1-1/2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/3 cup fat-free half-and-half or fat-free evaporated milk

Preparation:

Trim fat from chops. Sprinkle both sides of pork chops evenly with salt and pepper. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add chops to skillet, and cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until browned. Remove chops from skillet, and keep warm.

Add broth to skillet, stirring to loosen browned bits. Combine Dijon mustard and half-and-half or evaporated milk and add to skillet. Reduce heat, and simmer 7 minutes or until sauce is thickened slightly. Spoon sauce over chops.
