Recipe: Pork Chops with Dijon Herb Sauce

This was our dinner tonight.  We all liked it.  I served it with rice (I had riced cauliflower instead), asparagus and mushrooms.  Mmmm...

(5 SmartPoints, 166.5 calories, 9.2 g fat, 2.6g carbs, 16.4g protein)

1 tsp butter (I used olive oil)
4 pork chops (I used boneless)
1/2 tsp salt
fresh ground pepper
3 TBSP chopped onion
3/4 cup fat free chicken stock
1 TBSP dijon mustard
2 TBSP chopped, fresh herbs (I used parsley and rosemary)

In a large frying pan heat the butter (or olive oil) over moderately low heat.  Season pork with salt and pepper.  Raise heat to medium and add the chops to the pan and saute for a few minutes until chops are browned and done (160 degrees).  Remove the chops and put in a warm spot.

Add the onion to the pan and cook, stirring until soft, about 3 minutes.  Add the chicken stock and boil until it reduces to 1/2 cup, about 3 minutes.  Stir in the mustard, herbs and 1/8 tsp pepper.  Put the chops on a platter and pour the space over the meat.

**I increased the chicken stock, herbs, onions and mustard to have a bit more sauce.
