Cooking Tips

• Make sure to let the pork chops marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
• If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use whole grain mustard or spicy brown mustard as a substitute.
• For extra flavor, you can add a splash of white wine or chicken broth to the skillet when cooking the cabbage and fennel.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover pork chops can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the pork chops in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes, or until heated through.
• Serve the Dijon pork chops with cabbage and fennel as a main dish with a side of roasted potatoes or steamed rice.
