We loved this one. Used smoked spanish paprika and mace (out of nutmeg). Amazing flavor for such a simple preparation. The only change I will make for next time is to add more onion! Served it with yellow squash and green beans from garden & CSA.
7/21/2011 05:38:35 PM Report AbuseI was looking forward to this sauce. I love to try new sauces. I used sliced pork tenderloin along with the onion. I couldn't understand why it was so spicy. It was good but the heat overwhelmed the apricot and mustard. Then I realized I used cayenne pepper instead of paprika!! I have leftover pork so I'm going to make the sauce again.

5/2/2011 02:13:27 PM Report AbuseI made this recipe last night and my husband who doesn't like the taste of mustard even loved it. I used less nutmeg as it could be a little overwhelming my own personal taste. I also made the roasted sweet potatoes which went perfectly. This was easy and will be add to out go to quick week meals.
4/21/2011 01:39:03 PM Report AbuseThis is easy 2 fix. I used "Seasoned Pepper" and Sea Salt. Also I used Onion "rings" & added when I turned the Chops the 1st time. Some buttered, "Steamed Butternut Squash" topped with Cinnamon & Brown sugar [or Sugar in the Raw], complemented the flavor But [Sweet Taters sounded Good too]. ~ ~ and Wow !¿ these CHOPs are deliceous.
