This was a wonderful way to dress up our pork chops. And it was so easy and quick to prepare, which makes it a good recipe to prepare on those busy nights when you want a great meal but don't have a lot of time to fuss in the kitchen. And the horesradish sauce was mild, so even those who cannot tolerate a lot of "heat" would enjoy this dish. I did find that I had to cook such thick pork chops for more than 10 minutes though--it was closer to 20 minutes I think. Thanks for sharing your recipe, Sauce Lover. Made for Spring 2010 Pick-A-Chef.
