Pork Chops with Dijon Onion Sauce

I love the versatility of Dijon mustard--it can be sweet and tangy, spicy and tangy or just tangy.  It was one of those nights before the grocery store, and I was cleaning out the fridge when I saw a red onion and pork chops needing to be eaten.  Viola!  This recipe was born!

{Searing pork chops--use a splatter screen to prevent messes and burns!}

{Add Dijon and honey}

{Add remaining liquids and simmer to reduce the sauce and cook the onions}

{Add pork chops back and reheat}
