Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 2 large eggs, beaten

  • 2 teaspoons hot sauce

  • 3 cups honey mustard pretzels, such as Dots® Honey Mustard pretzels

  • 4 center-cut, bone-in pork chops

  • 1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided

  • 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons whole grain mustard

  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet; set aside.

  2. Whisk eggs and hot sauce together in a shallow dish. Crush pretzels in a food processor or plastic bag and add them to a second shallow dish. 

  3. Season pork chops evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Coat each pork chop in egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then coat each liberally in pretzel crumbs. 

  4. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops, 2 at a time, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.  

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

  6. Meanwhile, combine mustard, mayonnaise, honey, vinegar, and remaining salt and pepper in a small bowl and mix well. Microwave mustard sauce for 15 seconds, stir, and serve with pork chops.
