Preparation
- Step 1
Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mustards, ½ cup of oil and sherry vinegar until thoroughly blended. Set aside.
- Step 2
Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon remaining oil. Meanwhile, season pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Set aside to absorb the seasoning for a few minutes.
- Step 3
When the oil begins to smoke, add the shiitake mushrooms to the pan, brown side down, in a single layer. Cook, undisturbed, for 3 to 5 minutes over medium heat until the caps are seared all over. Using kitchen tongs, turn mushrooms on their other side and cook for a few more minutes until golden. Transfer mushrooms to a plate and set aside. Wipe skillet of any excess oil with a wad of paper towels and set over medium heat once again.
- Step 4
Add remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet. When it begins to smoke, add the pork chops in a single layer (you may have to do this in two batches). Cook the pork chops over high heat until the first side is browned, 6 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness. Flip over the pork chops and place the skillet in the center of the oven. Cook for an additional 6 to 8 minutes or until done to taste. Remove the skillet from the oven and allow the pork chops to rest, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Step 5
Arrange the pork chops on a serving platter. Top with mustard vinaigrette and mushrooms. Serve immediately.

The trick is to whisk the vinegars & mustard, then slowly drip in the oil as you whisk, so the vinaigrette emulsifies.
I like my vinaigrette’s to be more vinegary than oily, so I reduced the oil by half and added a squirt of fresh lemon and punch pinch of sea salt. Also, while I like shiitake mushrooms, they seem like an unnecessary splurge. Next time I will use baby Bella’s and increase the quantity to make them more like a side dish.
This is a terrific recipe, just don't substitute olive oil because it will smoke up your whole kitchen!
This is good. After reading comments, these are the adjustments I made. Half the oil in the dressing, added a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lemon juice. Used oyster mushrooms because I had them. Used olive oil, no problem with smoke at medium, per recipe. Served with steamed green beans that I used most of the dressing on, went well.
I don’t get the vinaigrette or mushrooms mentioned in the notes. But what didn’t work was the mustard staying on the chop.
Great!
