Yes, You Can Make Juicy, Flavorful Pork Chops In The Oven!
A common complaint about cooking pork chops is that they become too dry when cooked in the oven. But we’re here to show you that you can make flavorful, juicy pork chops, and it’s not hard to do! Unlike the breaded Shake ‘N’ Bake chops of our youth, these honey mustard pork chops are made with real-food ingredients for a bold flavor and great nutrition.
Want to know our secret? It’s all in the sauce! These sheet pan pork chops get coated in a savory spice rub before they are baked to perfection at the right temperature and for the right amount of time. Next, the chops get a liberal coating of tangy, homemade honey mustard sauce that locks in moisture and boosts their flavor even more. Paired with seasoned veggies and potatoes, this is a complete meal with minimal prep. Follow our simple technique, which calls for just two dishes, and you’ll have the best oven-baked pork chops you’ve ever tasted.
Ingredients For Sheet Pan Pork Chops With Honey Mustard Sauce
You don’t need store-bought breading or fancy ingredients to make these honey mustard pork chops. Round up the simple items below to make these sheet pan pork chops tonight.
For the Pork Chops:
- Boneless pork chops – look for chops that are about 4 ounces each and ¾- to 1-inch thick. May substitute bone-in pork chops, if preferred
- Brown sugar
- Dried herbs and spices – smoked paprika, dried thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, ground sage
- Olive oil – you’ll use 2 teaspoons to toss the potatoes and 1 teaspoon to form the spice rub. You can also use avocado oil
- Small new potatoes – these are young potatoes that are harvested while they’re still fairly small. As a result, they retain their shape well and have a sweeter, slightly more buttery taste. Red potatoes or large, cubed Russet potatoes can be used instead
- Fresh green beans – grab 12 ounces of fresh green beans from your local farmer’s market or grocery store, and trim the ends. You could also sub in broccoli florets or asparagus
- Salt and black pepper
- Optional garnish – chopped fresh parsley
For the Honey Mustard Sauce:
- Dijon mustard – Primal Kitchen Dijon Mustard is our favorite. It’s made without added sugar, and the ingredient list is short
- Mayo – once again, we’re huge fans of the Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Mayo. It has the mayo flavor you love and none of the ingredients you don’t. To make these honey mustard pork chops egg-free, use a vegan mayo
- Honey – or sub maple syrup
- Coconut aminos – read more about this savory condiment here, as well as substituions
- Garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper

Loved this recipe! I’m a big honey mustard person – usually the unhealthy kind and was unsure if I would like it but i was surprised. Also, it was very easy to make, especially during the week when you have a busy schedule. Highly recommend.
Stacie Hassing says

Abby says
Is there a link to the original recipe? It was a staple at our house.
Jessica Beacom says
Unfortunately, we don’t have a link to the original recipe but this should help:
* Omit the spice rub. Sprinkle Chops with salt and pepper and marinate with ¼-⅓ cup Tessemae’s Honey Mustard dressing.
* Amount of potatoes and green beans are the same as the original (1 pound and 12 ounces, respectively)
* Baking time is unchanged from the original
* Omit the homemade Honey-Mustard Sauce and replace with bottled dressing.
