These Creamy Honey Mustard Pork Chops make a great midweek meal. Ready in under 20 minutes and all cooked in one skillet, this easy low carb dinner is one for the whole family. The pork is seared until golden then a creamy sauce, packed with the flavors of honey and mustard, is made right in the same pan. The addition of heavy cream and milk give you a deliciously smooth and creamy sauce.

Notes
Depending on whether you want a bone or not, my choices would be a loin chop or a boneless chop. The rib chop does have plenty of flavor but when I am serving the kids I want it to be easy to eat and super tender so I will go with the boneless chop.
Using both dijon and wholegrain mustard adds flavor and texture. But you can use one type of mustard if that is all you have.
